Neil Darby replied to Ben Huntington's discussion Advice: Fencing down Concrete Steps
"I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole. I am guessing that if you want a fence down the middle there are issues with your neighbour. It would look horrendous as well as totally impractiable, as others have said. Anybody worth their salt should walk…"

"The higher voltage (after a certain point) doesn't necessarily mean a faster stroke rate. For fine conifer and the like I use a Stihl HSA94T (older version of the HSA130T) which is incredibly fast, in fact I can't even cope with it on the highest of…"

Ian Harvey replied to Ben Huntington's discussion Advice: Fencing down Concrete Steps
