New Milwaukee M12 Detail Hedge Trimmer- 8" Long - Compact & Quick! 

I’d get one of these in a heartbeat. Lots of hedges are large and I would prefer the pole type trimmer, but otherwise this would be my go to

Nope, waste of money and inefficient use of time!

Nice! I was thinking it would be cool to have a holser on my zero-turn mower for this. I'm often ducking around some low branches or other overgrown items.

Thanks for sharing, Shane.

@@AZHighlandHomestead hello

Thanks, Derrell I try my best💯

Awesome, thanks!

Agreed! I already have a few M12 XC 4.0's and I forgot to mention you can easily get an hour of runtime (Using off and on) from 1 battery.

You bet!

Haha, hey Mike, I never thought of it like that, but it can take down stuff like a machete.

Hey Ted, that detail sander looks awesome. I’m hoping to have one here on the channel pretty soon.

@@MarkThomasBuilder my buddy has it, and he says it's a game changer

That's good to hear.👊 I was on vacation last week and noticed that the screened in porch needed some sanding on the screen frames. Immediately I thought of the M12 sander and how it would be perfect for that.

I recall it has a safety button to release the trigger, but not a lock to keep it on. I don't think hedge trimmers, in general, have a trigger lock.

I'll see what I can do. I have a project to test it on if I can get one to test out.

That's a bargain price. I haven't tested any other their more recent outdoor power equipment to see how they compare.

@@MarkThomasBuilder it was a good deal and size wise is perfect my wife loves it I wonder what I’ll do when the blades go dull in a year or so if sharpening is an option or replace blade

I just discovered a local sharpening service at our farmers market who does hedge trimmer sharpening. I'm curious if most hedge trimmer are able to be sharpened.

I haven't tested that one out. I'd like to see how it compares, especially if Makita ever made a compact size.

@@MarkThomasBuilder It has the fastest blade speed and is literally like using a scalpel!

Ohh nice I'll have to check it out.

Are you kidding? That Makita is more than 8 and a half pounds and almost 4 feet long. Not really a good comparison.
