Thanks for all of the input guys! Appreciate it and so does my mate, who found in dumped on the side of the road. I gave him a carby service kit and a new fuel cap. It was running but leaking fuel from all over the shop. So we started cleaning it up tonight but it runs really well. Wheels are solid as a rock. Paint is a little bubbled up.
Personally I never came in contact with edgers in my 16 years gardening until the last 5 because I was taught how to do it with a snipper. Until I started working at a company that took care of a gated community called Sandhurst, which is a smallish suburb with 2 golf courses tangled throughout the houses and streets. We had a 2 kilometre stretch that was the main drive up to the clubhouse and past. With footpaths and it all had to be done a certain way and part of the edging process was done by 1 guy with an atom-edger. Now I have to say the way this company made us do edging and brush-cutting the grass from the edge blend into the height of the ride on mower and where it couldn't get to. I have to say I worked at some places where I thought the edging was good but this company did it on a large scale but to another level of quality. 7 guys every Friday did the entire stretch during spring and summer. The whole place had recycled water irrigation and was always green even during water restrictions.
Anyway, I don't do that stuff any more and I can do my own lawn edges nicely with a snipper.
Thanks again, he's probably going to have it up on ebay tomorrow night.
