DaveJr. Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Bought this trimmer on Friday. Stihl FS 70R. So far so good. Stihl makes some great OPE. I have some of their other equipment as well. I will be putting it to the test when I go up to our hunting cabin to cut the grass in a few weeks. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol You are going to need more than rehab after all you spent. You are going to need to be placed in the rubber room. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a limited time only I'll allow you into my rehab program for free, that's right absolutely free, not a dime out of your pocket. The first step in rehabilitation is admitting you have a problem, which it seems you have already accomplished. Step two is removing yourself from temptation, you're going to need to stop browsing retailers websites. More importantly to remove yourself from temptation you will have to get rid of your triggers. In my experience I have found that most addicts are triggered by tools they currently own. The only way to completely be certain this does not happen to you is to immediately send me any and all tools you have in your possession. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They still have them clearanced at only $21 Might consider buying and doing a return/rebuy after they clearance further. I was told twice that they can do it in the 90-day return window, though price protection (I think) is only 30 days. One more reason HD is the best freaking store customer service wise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did it for a faucet I bought 2 weeks previously. Got more money back than what I had spent [emoji16]. The nippers are the same price here just not sure if I would use them. I have to return some things this week. If they are still there I might pick them up. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk I used them immediately. I swapped out the self-tappers for bolts and nuts on the magnetic rail attached to the Matco tool cart I bought(Used). My mini bolt cutters and knipex diagional would have had me grinding to get the bolt flush with the nut...this took 15 seconds, including opening the package! If you don't have this kind of cutter, you should. I lucked out because I've been looking at the Knipex ones and I was browsing and these were on the rack, figured I'd give them a shot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kruton Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 I am getting ready to start tiling our bathroom so I thought it would be a good time to try this out. Seems like a pretty good idea. So far the construction seems pretty solid and everything works smoothly. I'll know more after the mortar starts flying!
