Made a new purchase last weekend. I'd already had a phenomenal bank trimmer - 9 foot sickle mower modified with a winch attachment so I can run it any angle from straight down to straight up.



it works great, but I've got several sections of bank on my big pond that are too long to reach down to the water's edge.

So I ran across this beauty and brought it home last Saturday...



It's an old county ditch trimmer - all hydraulic - and will reach out a bit past 18 feet. It needs a little work, leaky cylinders, etc, but it'll be a great addition once I get it squared away. Say goodbye to cattails, black willows and darn near anything else on the pond edges!!
