Hey all!
We're Rob and Sarah. We believe Making things cures the soul. It also makes a HUGE mess, and who doesn't love that? Every week we meet in the Maker Break workshop to build something new while keeping all 20 of their fingers intact. We spend all week watching Maker videos from around the world for inspiration, and every Friday we share our project with you!
Our passion is fueled not by the projects we build, but by the MAKER COMMUNITY that never fails to support each other. That's why every 2 weeks we interview a new friend in "Meet a Maker". If you're an online Maker and would like to be interviewed, reach out!
We watch a TON of Maker Videos each week, and Sarah shares her favorites in Sarah's Top 5 DIY! You'll find a new episode here every two weeks.
That Maker Break Channel is produced by the creative tool team at Belts and Boxes.

Or, if you want to eat most of what you trim, run your straight shaft trimmer LEFT HANDED!😆
Same with lawnmower
String trimmer is same as weed wacker?
Clippings are a great mulch
if you hit a fence you learn witch way to go so it won't grab .
If you buy your tools from Walmart then I don’t want to hear you
Thanks Ben Affleck
Some people like the debris going in the bed to help feed the bed... in 2 days it will blend in anyways, people this picky about their yards deserve to do it themselves because its not like they are paying a premium for the extra anyways...
Counter clockwise = left to right Clockwise = right to left...got it
Nobody cares
Grass only grows so tall, don't mow it at all just let it grow
that's why I painted directional arrows on my trimmer to know which way the off fall was being thrown - either towards or away from the operator
direction matters
My trimmer has a CW and CCW setting when i swing back and forth it moves with my body... its the IDGAF brand
You don’t mention how far the hangers??
Well, I'll be damned. Never knew why the grass was going everywhere. Not anymore!
Just bought my first trimmer yesterday! Very timely advice, thank you.
That only works if you are standing on the lawn. If you are standing on the sidewalk, you need to go left to right. Otherwise your mess will be on the sidewalk.
Can they make one for people that are only 5 feet tall? Please?
Thanks I needed to know that

Staying warm in freezing Chicago winters are priceless 🇵🇷🇺🇲🙏🏼
Wow, thanks! Was actually wondering if there was a proper way to use it
very good tip thank you
Aha!!
Thank you for thinking I have a nice yard with mulch to care for.
So move in same direction as the blade is moving?
Your using hart go play in your sand box kid
I hate cutting grass...
Life changing. Ty
Humidifier and blower fan blades but I like the cleaning up the living room one best :)
Omg I never knew this lol thank you for the tip 😊
How can you make this video and not share the plans?
Ahh, that makes sense. No wonder I had clippings going into the mulch. Lesson learned thank you.
don’t trust a guy that wears safety glasses w a weedwacked
I have a hard time taking "expert trimmer advice" from someone with a Wal Mart brand trimmer.
I dont want to be covered in grass, so i do the opposite of your stupid little video, thanks
THERE MAKING CARBON FIBER STRING TRIMERS NOW what brand and where to get
Great tip, thank you
So do you just spin in circles? Lol
I was doing it right sir
I figured that out when i was 16. it also means that al l the cut grass is moved to onside making it easier to clean up
I have heated gloves and socks
Shows me I worked for a bunch of hacks
Any thing you are doing wrong is you not using gas
I had no clue, thanks.
Thanks for the tip ! I never knew that. I just bought the EGO battery powered trimmer at Lowe ‘s .
Right to left got it!
Right left right left ughhh son ughh son!‼️
My thing spins clockwise
