    Looking for a strippers that can be used both around the garden and for cutting back under electric fencing? What options are available that wouldn't break the bank.

    I bought a Stihl last year. Has a saw head. About €600 I think. Absolutely fantastic job. You’d do a lot in a few hours.

    For any sort of farm use I’d think you’d want a Brush Cutter grade. Handle bars well worth it too IMO.

    For these type of things always kinda feel a visit to you tool repair place is a good place to buy for backup in future. They know the quality of the build their selling

    Have a Mibsubishi TU26. Nice light strimmers for doing under fences and other tidying bits. Lightness is what you want. Walking fields hitting the odd cluster of weeds and crossing wires/gates. Tried a big heavy Marunaka and didn't like it. Too heavy, too loud and very awkward with the big handlebars I found. For a different job that size strimmers.
