    Lex1000 info requested.

    Looking for ANY info.. I currently have 2 OLD Professional Edgers that are 20+ years old! I'm getting a Spartan Edger (and yes, I've heard stories), and a New Santinelli Lex1000 with a Mini Blocker. I'm more in question as to some of the things I can expect and not expect from the Lex. I really had my heart set on 2 Optronics 7E, but that isn't gonna happen. I've used the 7E's before and really liked the speed, accuracy, reliability and ease to care for them. Can I expect some of the same things from the Lex? As for the Spartan, I know what I'm getting into there. All-in-all, either way, I'll no longer have to shove my head inside a Pro Edger to place the bevel like I have been doing for the last 15 years!

    Ah yes, the wonderful Pro Edgers. The first LC store I worked at had those. Absolutely hated them.
    Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity
