    Project Farm Tests Pole Saws

    I thought he should have tested 1 or 2 corded pole saws in the mix. Would have been a much better test. I bought a Scotts 8-amp 10-in corded pole saw 3 or 4 years ago for like $59. Works good for what little I do with it. For as little as most people use them I can't see spending $$$ on a...

    High gears as in high speed or AKA tall gear. Low gears as in slow speed or AKA short gear. Let say If you drive your 67 Camaro with a 4 speed on the street with 5:13 butt gears, you will be doing a lot of shifting mumbling that 1st gear was sure a short gear.

    What to use to kill honeysuckle?
