    Got a new brush cutter. Slow going but The Iron Core string will handle some pretty thick brush. [​IMG]

    Shindaiwa C35 with an 80 tooth blade.
    I need to swap out the dull blade now but they really do a good job when sharp.
    Once I get it knocked down I think a 4 tooth blade would handle anything new that pops up but some of the woody stuff is pretty thick at the base.
