I would say 3 feet most of the time you can hang the longer side out the front but ever so often that 6ft one is in the middle.

Word on the street is Ron was born with ONLY 2 feet ! and 2 hands, I'd be willing to give him a hand, but a foot... NEVER !! ..:laughing:..:laughing:

You will have a harder time finding me, though I'd better bring all the weedeaters inside so you don't see them when you look at the satellite images for Florida.

Re: Shindaiwa

Bert-Man,

Ichi-bon-son-san, who has his own landscaping business, will only use those motorized "brooms", that are made by Shindaiwa. He swears by them.

I recently tried to repair a broken off handle of a hedge trimmer he had. I was surprised at how light the handle casting was! (That is what broke.) I tried to repair it with steel inserts embedded in JB Weld "Steel Stick", which I hoped would tie the two sections of the handle together.. It didn't work, broke off the first time he tried it. "Steel Stick" is not as strong as I hoped it would be. I now wonder if 3,500 psi epoxy would have been a better choice, it would have 'flowed' in around the bits of steel I used to help strengthen the break. The steel stick required me to force it in place, there may have been some unseen voids. Oh well, I do ALL of it for fun, making a profit never seems to be in the cards anyway.

And here in lies the difference.
I do it to pay the bills & put food on the table ( well to be honest I grow about 60% of the food ) but I still need to pay the bills.

Maybe I have been looking at this all wrong.....should the press frame be parallel to or perpendicular to the wall??
For some reason I had been thinking parallel...but now that seems pretty restrictive.

With exception of maybe an awning over the enrty door to the lower shop,
Every T has been dotted and every I has been crossed with the construction of Ron's Lower Shop (that's kinda an Astor Florida reference...)

Mine used to be bolted to the floor but I have unbolted it so many time to move it it now just sits there
