    This is probably completely obvious but I've been using string trimmers my entire life and had no idea you can swap and upgrade the heads. I guess they mostly use a few shared designs and the universal heads fit most things.

    I love the T35. Might be something better out there but they've never given me a reason to look. Have worn through several over the years.
