IH electric edger
 

Picked up this old IH edger at a yard sale on Monday for $10. I plugged it in and it even works. :biggrin2: Just curious, does anyone know who made this for IH, or did they make it themselves?:IH Logo:

that's pretty cool, a while back cub cadet warehouse had an electric weed eater but it sold pretty fast.

That is neat! Nice find!

That is kinda cool.

I don't know anything about them but it kinda looks like the Black & Decker or Skill tools of the era.

Try Googleing the numbers on the tag and see what you come up with.

I remember them, think they were sold back in the 70's. Seems there was a hand held weed trimmer (kind of like a hedge trimmer with only a 4 " blade) as well.

Anybody know why these as well as the walk behind tillers all had IH on them and not Cadet? Then again, the lawn carts were IH as well weren't they?

Thanks for all the replies everyone, I think it is pretty cool too:biggrin2:. I used it a little today to edge a sidewalk.

I have an older Black and Decker and it looks something like that, so I second what Mark said, but I am no expert on it either.

Cool tool!

That's cool! A few years back a guy in Columbia mo had an IH electric weedeater for sale. I talked to him, was going to buy it and some a-hole stole it out of his truck! Still miffed about that! Nice find!

Nice find on the edger.
