The Sthil FS 111 seems like a good trimmer.

Uh so, the FS 111 RX has been a good machine for me. I've tried different strings. Uh it works best on the Oregon uh .95. It'll handle the 105, but it will not handle the 105 if your string is a much larger than the typical guard. Cuz when it goes out to here, it bogs down. I've also tried the Oregon square. It didn't really like that at all. It bogged down.

Uh, it's probably a little bit heavy for it here. Once you see me get over by those rocks, you'll realize how just tall that is over there. Uh same as the last is grass and fern, bracken fern, and purple top. And there's little wattles there which I'm going to leave a few of them because they're a pioneering species. And uh they're better left.
