TRIMMING LINES

A string trimmer, also called a “weed-whip“, “whipper-snipper“, “weed-whacker“, a “weed eater“, a “line trimmer”  or a “strimmer”  is a tool which uses a flexible monofilament line instead of a blade for cutting grass and other plants near objects, or on steep or irregular terrain. It consists of a cutting tip at the end of a long shaft with a handle.
