NICE idea - if you want to know how far the parts fly, after disassemble itself - at 5000 (more?) revolutions / per minute. There is a steel disc with solid blades, useful for things harder than grass. You need the same safety equipment as for chainsaws. The idea is good, use headed bolts and nylon rope / zip ties?

The longer the chain, the greater the shrapnel effect. This is one of the most creative grenades i've ever seen.

I recall the day the boss handed us something similar to this. More over-engineered though, with big chain links like you'd find on a decent bike lock. Invented by an Italian farmer the paperwork said. Well we fitted it to the machines & away we went. Fucking incredible I can tell you. Smashes through brambles & even small trees with ease! Then one of the links breaks off & flies out so fast you can't even see it, just like a bullet.... At that point the whole head becomes imbalanced (we had four chains on ours). So you take a bolt cropper out of the van & cut the other three chains to the correct size, & away you go again. It was like playing russian roulette. The safe working distance is usually something like 5-10 metres with a regular strimmer. It went up to about 50m using that chain thing.

Reading the comments made me anxious to build one

The chains are much heavier and consequently, make the equipment less effective than it was in its original format. This will result from the decrease in the number of rotations per minute. In addition to this, the fuel consumption will increase because due to the increase in weight caused by the chains, you now need more fuel to get the same amount of work out of the tool.

Not only that, because they are heavier they will significantly reduce the life of the equipment. Manufacturers of commercial equipment will not warrantee string trimmers if the string guard is removed, which many landscapers do. The reason is the guard has a cutter in it that keeps the string at a pre determined length. Longer string is heavier and causes premature wear. The longer string slows down the weed wacker, wears the clutch, and can snap shafts inside the stem. In other words, beats the shit out of the equipment.

Read quite a few replies and nearly pissed myself laughing! Not sure if there are many mechanical geniuses out there, but there's some right funny bastards!🙂 Keep up the good work!

And when you're in the ER with a bike chain imbedded in your shin, you'll wish you'd spent the $20 to buy a proper weed eater head and string. This is very unsafe click-bait.

First brick you hit half of it buggers off at high speed as shrapnel and the rest of it turns into a high RPM cam on a stick.

Classic example of thinking more of whether or not you CAN do something, and less of whether or not you SHOULD do something.

Never laughed so hard in my life reading the comments. Thanks everyone.

2 thoughts … is that too much weight for the bearings? I’ve blown the bearings out of tools by using bits/blades they aren’t rated for. Also might run at too slow of an rpm. Possibly a lighter chain.

That's pretty cool and if a person shouldn't be using any type of lawn equipment that may end up hurting themselves and I won't use the word for those type of people or I should say if you have enough brains to use it without getting hurt the thing is amazing for the job I personally love it and thank God that's the way of the future should be thanks for showing and sharing

The flexible chain will wrap around an object it can't cut, stalling the engine or breaking the driveshaft.

I am old enough to remember "old time" edgers. Basically a round blade you held in a vertical fashion to "edge" your lawn. String trimmers are much more safe and useful!

I'm only 35,the ole bad a** that I landscaped under for 15 yrs refused to use any powered handtools.still to this day I can cut a more crisp edged tree ring or flower bed by hand than most people can with a gas edger,just not quite as fast.

Brilliant idea with smart creative

Best tool I have ever seen. Only could not catch the amount of chain links

My wife's cousin recently injured himself damn near fatally when a welded-on attachment (didn't get much details on the shape or size) to a gas-powered weed-eater blade came off at speed and hit him on the inside-top of the calf muscle, and severed an artery. He was out in the field, hit the ground and was trying to yell for help but was several hundred yards from his house. Somehow, someone heard or saw him and they went and got him from the field. The whole village chipped in and donated blood as he'd lost so much he was almost out of the survivable zone. A 2 week hospital stay recovering from the emergency 'surgery' they do here, (this is Thailand) plus the transfusions, and now several weeks still of limited motion and sensation. And, BTW, yes, he knows how to weld, done it for years. Welding ANYTHING to a blade which revolves at SUCH a high rate of speed is extremely dangerous. Stress and fatigue cracks from spinning and flexing, (especially if the rotating piece is out of balance by even the most MINUTE amount) can appear and grow in metals, and there's no real way to tell when or how they'll fail. After a while, one strike at a rock or almost-totally submerged pipe, etc. could easily be enough to knock off an attachment, especially if it's NOT the first strike. Personally, I think you should remove this vid. There have been many others advocating using chain and steel cable (from motorcycle brakes, etc.) as cutting lines, but this is probably the worst I've seen.. You are doing a genuine disservice to viewers AND THEIR PEOPLE, (since family goes through a traumatic event WITH their loved one). You are encouraging them (you know you are) , with COMPLETE DISREGARD for their varying mechanical-fabrication skill levels, all the variables of the different materials which may be pressed into use, and natural factors like terrain and handling experience, to ignore safety concerns, and attempt a (poorly engineered) modification to a piece of steel which, when used, will spin EXTREMELY fast, and create a very REAL and possibly lethal safety hazard, all for views, ego and $$. Sad.

I’ll keep my grass long and my feet attached I think! Just saving up my money to buy a replacement flexible blade as they are around £1.50 for a pack of 5!

RIP Mr. Dk, he died in the name of science

I made an attachment for my grandmothers weed wacker 35 years ago out of an old bicycle chain,,, got tired of having to constantly replace the twine in it from the heavy brush she wanted cut down… thankfully, grandpa was a blacksmith and taught me how to make a lot of tools… with a little ingenuity and about 30 minutes in the machine shed, I had a nice gas powered brushhogger out of that old weed wacker…. Don’t get your legs anywhere near it while it’s running though… you won’t have a foot!

Please DON'T do this! This same idea became popular back in the 1980s. A link broke off and went through a child's head, instantly killing her. And there were many others with injuries from this "idea."

Got a better idea. Use the chain to ride your bike.

I would like to try this - but with a remote control and from behind a bullet proof barrier. Still, I love the idea!

It would be the bolt securing the chain that would fail after hitting a rock.
