Hey I like that Andy. With practise you will be a whiz. Nice touch. How did you go about doing it

Thanks Stripes, I don't mind experimenting on stuff like that, it's a good way to learn. 18 months ago I'd never even cut a single hedge or even dreamed of doing anything technical with them.
Thanks Bluey, total free hand with a pair of hedging shears. A graffiti artist I used to know said to me once "you always see it just before you paint it" and I believe him. I took a good look at it and sort of pictured where I wanted it to go and where it would look best from and stood there till I could see where it was meant to go. If only I'd seen it a bit neater and the numbers shaped better and on the same line, but I'll get them there.
I'm practicing my stripes, not quite as good as yours Stripes but gotta start somewhere. Grassman177 this is a kikuyu lawn well about 80% and 20% crap cut on 7th lowest setting with a 196.
Two ducks... 22 is the street number.
Yeah it's a spreader alright, no sh1t this stuff will grow up the earth of a power pole and under bricks and come out the other side.
196 is a honda rotary mower!
I have the sickness too "love a good stripe," but i never cut the same direction twice. here is a pure couch one. Cut with a John Deere 220a Reel [/IMG][IMG][/IMG]and here is a cool season grass "Blue grass & Rye" cut with a Honda 197d rotary
That first pic is beautiful.
Want to move here and buy my business?
What stripes said x2, except for the buying my business bit.
Oops I thought that was Grassman177 when I saw the Bluegrass and Rye. I should look at who is posting a bit more!
Im cutting the first pic at 18mm once or twice a week. The second pic is cut way to high, its cut weekly, but the client insists on watering flat out so i cant get it down before it grows. Time for some growth retardent!
very nice maniucred lawn dude. awesome.
yep ,
are we too slow , or the people here paying too much you think ?
its not just mowing
whipper snip around the house and sheds and trees pathways and drive ways and blow the same areas if needed
we have to dodge a lot of irrigation lines
small ride on for tight work under trees in the orchard , big ride on knocks off the bigger areas
$35 p/h is what we charge for each operator
good / bad / or is this ugly for us
This is a job we did last week....
