Dear All
This is my first post to the forum and hope someone can advise on the following:
I have an old style Bosch strimmer that takes the single cords that fit across the head. They look like a length of plastic rope with a connector in the middle. Although Bosch and other makers are still making and selling the cords, no one appears to be making a strimmer that will take them. Aside from buying a second hand machine, does anyone know of a manufacturer still making a machine that will take these single cords?
It seems all you can buy now are auto-feeders which are more trouble than they are worth or ones which take the plastic hook-on blades which fly off. On small jobs it's quicker to get on my hands and knees and use hand sheers.
Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Steve.
