Default A Little Fab Work

The 1st pic shows another victim of one of the storms that came thru here the last couple of years. Don't know which one. Thankfully, it did not fall across the trail.

The trimmer did not come with a sleeve/cover for the blade. Obviously, it has some very sharp edges. So, we decided to fab up a cover. TJ had a piece of sewer pipe left over from her art project.

Just so happened it was EXACTLY the right size to slip over the trimmer blade perfectly. I made a couple of quick cuts on it, with a cutting wheel on my side grinder. Then TJ broke out the duct tape & sealed off one end. Works great ! Hey, whatever it takes !
