They Can Send A Man To The Moon, But Can't Make A Decent Carving Tool!

.ADVERTISEMENT

I have run across the tool of all tools.

The Tree Hawg 5000

This tool will reduce an average size tree to sawdust in mere minutes. The precision chainsaw is balanced and feels good in the hand, while the arbortech will get the hard to reach places. Final nook and cranny details are not lost with the keen dremal tool that folds out with a flick of the wrist. (Providing your wrist is still attached.)

The arbortech comes with a precision wound armeture for high speed grinding. At 72,000 RPM, be sure to wear ear protection or a trip to the hospital is in the future. The dremel tool is light and can make use of all the standard attachments.

The tools is made in the Swiss alps. Makers of the World famous Army knife. The case is water and blood resistant.

Comes with carring case, goggles, earplugs, gascan, and 50 bandaids.
$799.99

Looks like a handy dandy device but will it fit in my tool box?

Kurt from Gernmany has enhanced this tool with an automatic shulder clapper device for finding an excellent tree or styling an outstanding bonsai or getting rid of the most favorite bonsai enemy.

So far for the value of German engineering.

Some more suggestions on the German forum:

1) beer-bottle opener
2) moonlighting device for making liquer from moutain berries in the wilderness
3) hammock
4) compass
5) digital camera

best regards

Is the german term for this (illegal) making of alcoholic spirits "moonlighting", or is this a Babel for the American term "Moonshine"?

I once had me one 'bout like that deluxe model there.
It was the seatwarmer and band-aids that really sold me.And I'll
tell you what. The wife will appreciate having it around, and the kids just love em.

A tool like this just helps a guy out ya know,you reach for it
and it's there.

I really like the insecticide attachment, the ease of spraying while hacking just appeals to me.

Yamadori 3000

I have used the Tree Hawg 5000 for several years now and not only has it proven a quick and easy way to remove various obtrusive body parts, but it really carves up a storm on all that yamadori deadwood. After several season with my beloved Tree Hawg, I found myself needing several special adaptations I order to continue to dig the stumps (my new nick name by the way) I so love. In partnership with Bionic Industries, San Jaun, Page Ranking, I have developed, perfected and am ready to market the "Yamadori 3000" suit. This suit is guaranted to dig more trees, faster and with much less control , than any other suit on the market.
During this special introductory offer, and if you act now, you can have your own Yamadori 3000 for just three equal payments of $1204.56. That's a savings of over 3% off the regular retail price.

Act soon, supplies are limited.
