    I'd say it'd be handy for dagging but I wonder would it heat up too much while shearing especially if your not too experienced at it.

    Every year I seriously consider buying something like that. If you can get a reliable shearer to turn up and clip them for €2 without the moaning and breaking your heart, I'd go for that instead.

    there a waste of time i bought one a few years ago it was great till i got used to clipping and got fast. if u are clipping 20 a day then of course it will never fail but when i got better and was clipping 80-90 a day then mine blew up in peices in my hand. not a fun feeling tbh. i am afraid with sheep clippers its full duck or no dinner. either buy the good expensive ones or don't buy.

    same lad coming to us for years, can be a pain to get him on the phone sometimes but when he says he's coming he comes, unless it rains. saying that he's rarely on time.
