Poulon Pro weed whip

Cutoff wheel in the dremel will make a screwdriver slot.
But - you have to get them out to cut the slot. Takes a special tool. Come in a set of 3 sizes. EPA really frowns on those getting in the public's hands . Just saying. Check ebay.
In these parts a weed whip has a long handle and a blade about 10" that cut on both sides. Swung my man power. No carb needed.

For the longest time my one uncle's preferred weed removal tool was a well worn and well sharpened scythe, he would just wave it at the weeds and they would fall over.
How does that work on weeds growing out of a crack in the sidewalk?
Push mower handled them,
We lived in the country, didn't worry about edging the sidewalk. When the grass started to over grow the sidewalk a good sharp flat shovel and cart took care of the problem.We only had about 20 feet of sidewalk to the driveway, had no use for powered weed whackers or edgers.
I use my ECHO weed eater that uses .105" string to do all my edging. Kindest thing done for 2 strokes is use only non-ethanol gas.
I started buying those cans of premixed fuel at rural king this year. I only use about a half gallon of mixed fuel a season. My weedeater starts 100 times easier!!

I don't see non ethanol as a huge expense as I use maybe 7 gal. in a year, but like you say use what works for you.
I think ethanol content varies by area?
I wish we had e50 or e85 available every where. My subaru would have the ethanol sensor and tune done to run on corn. That's good for 50 to 100hp in a turbo car....

Even the tanks.thay say 10% vary.
I've seen where 10% tanks tested at 25%
Not good on older vehicles
Or small engines!
