Brush cutters (nf)

[Landlocked]

Hi everyone,

My inlaws need to clear an area for a driveway at their cottage and were wondering what was out there for "walk behind" brush cutters....the heavier duty the better! Anybody ever used them or have any recommendations?

 

Thanks!

Do you have a suit of armor to wear while using it? I run one behind a tractor and would never even think of walking behind something that can split rocks, cut small trees..etc. I'd think having a guy drop by with a backhoe would be the cheapest..quickest..safest solution.

 

Using a brush cutter / bush hog will leave all those sapling trunks sticking up to poke tires etc. so you'd need to dig those out anyway...and why I suggest one shot with a hoe/exacavator.
