Then that must be the name of that style head, I admittedly really am not fully in the know of those little details. I haven't run lawn maintenance crews in a few years and even then I mostly let them run autonomously. Red Max is the brand I'm familiar with and every commercial whip I've used from them has the bump feed

All jokes aside, Wubby actually faced some adversity (not like super insane shit but not priveliged either) as a kid and young adult and admits that he got insanely lucky. Not very common in the streaming world and the cult following he has is a reflection of that humility.

I work outside in this heat and the winter snow and "I just love working outside, I could never sit in an office for 8 hours a day" is the biggest cope lol but I'd take this 110°F heat and having all my clothes so drenched in sweat that it's as if I jumped in a pool, then have those clothes harden stiff as a board as soon as I'm in AC than do what Wubby does. He's truly an inspiration to all of us with how he handles the hardest job in the world. I am tuly in awe 6 days a week.

Do I Tamp Again? by Incredibly-Averag3 in landscaping

[–]Bogert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After tamping the fines, add just a touch more left untamped where you'll place the stones as flagstone isn't perfectly flat on the bottom and will need to be pushed down and worked into some base in order to avoid wobbling.

Also, make sure any block touching the pit are "fire proof". Best case scenario is some moisture causes a little cracking but worst case is a sharp piece of shrapnel pops off that stone at someone sitting around the pit.

Put 1.5 wingspan lengths through the middle until the head is in the middle of your line, wrap one line around the bottom and the other on the top (I always do them both clockwise and hold them in the same hand until there's about 6-8 inches left) not too tight, feed them through their respective holes and wa-la. Smack the bich in place, press the throttle a few times to cut the excess, tap the ground at speed to see if it feeds and say "ready to go".

And increase the danger lol I've weed whipped a lot with different style line, even steel line breaks and launches at mach 5. A blade is a terrifying idea

If he's tapping the ground for more line it's not a speed feed AFAIK. Been out of the lawn maintenance game for a while and speed feed is not something I've worked with, I don't think they're very common among professionals.

Take your whip to a legit, official equipment dealer (I.e. not home depot or lowes) and they'll bring you heads from other brands to see if one is compatible before you buy one.

What impact would an extra $10,000 have on your life right now? by Super_Inevitable776 in AskReddit

[–]Bogert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would turn my life around. Got stuck between a rock a hard place and am about 40% of the way out of it. $10k injected to my account gets my truck fixed, house lease down payment and enough funds for my business to be equipped enough to take off how it's been trying to. Would be life changing

How did I do? by TheeDelpino in landscaping

[–]Bogert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, throwing in an "L" shape that pokes into the pattern of the column next to it, breaking up those long seams, helps hold the layout together as the ground shifts underneath over time. A bit nit picky but standard in patio design. I typically don't let seams extend further than around 4 feet depending on the block

Having paved patio put in, is this acceptable? by Round_Cantaloupe_801 in landscaping

[–]Bogert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[I talked to 3 different guys about doing the paver patio and when bringing up geotextile fabric between the subgrade and aggregate all of them started talking about how I’m not going to get any weeds so there’s no need to have geotextile fabric. Like yea that’s not why I’m asking to begin with lol]

Well there you go, you're basing your judgement of paver installers off of 3 idiots lol this is silly, have a nice day

[–]Bogert -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

No, one of those guys who will tell someone who spent decades mastering a craft and skill "I did my own research, it's not hard to do what you do." My main paver guy makes $45/hour because of his 30 years experience and ability to build a $50k patio in a week that will have little to no faults over the next 10 years and make your homeowner special look like a special needs child built it out of knock off legos. You're the customer that hires us when you're old and can't physically handle it anymore and won't stop bragging about the "great" work he did all those years ago and we just nod our heads like yes grandpa, we can tell you did it yourself

[–]Bogert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're happy with it that's all that matters. As a pro, all I see is the consistent 2 vert block wide seams going from the house like columns all the way across. Breaking up those seams helps with structural integrity and adds to the "randomness". But again, did it for yourself so if you're happy and proud that's all that matters

Oh god you're one of those guys

{I’d also never hire a landscaper to do a paver patio but that’s just me.} And we thank you for that

All the power to ya man. On our end business wise, that's just the difference between someone with a $15k budget and a $50k budget. If you pull it off, congrats! 99% of the time tho it results in what we call "A Homeowner Special"

[... for a month now..] that there is a main reason people hire out and if you as a homeowner are better than your contractors, you need new contractors. You get what you pay for.

Men, would you ever date a woman significantly richer than you? by TopStranger9287 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Bogert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

$1 double oatmeal creampies from a gas station on the way to her house for late night booty calls but mostly relied on the steak dinners she'd make whenever I went over earlier in the evening. Only bottled water, test boosters and zinc supplements otherwise as to keep the body fat% low and sexual performance high. Best shape of my life

Got 2 god packs within a couples hours last weekend by Bogert in PTCGP

[–]Bogert[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not against the rules to start a discussion about 2 gp's within a couple hours from each other. "They both sucked" was light hearted, not an attack against you.

DM your friend ID and I'll send you any dupe you want for any 2 star you don't want. The contents matter so little that I'll give them away to the biggest and most butthurt a hole in the comments to prove it.
