We got the "Stihl FSA 135". With our use it is likely to last for the rest of our life. While it comes with a strimmer head (using nylon wire*) we'll be using it with a metal cutting disk as not to pollute the woodland with untold bits of #microplastics. I'm looking forward to do some testing this weekend :-) *There's no such thing as biodegradable trimmer wire. #podcast tip: the @plastisphere@podcasts.social episode about microplastics in soil: https://anjakrieger.com/2021/04/27/welcome-to-the-plastisphere/ 2/2 #gardening #woodland
