    Would anyone have a heavy duty brush mower that I could barrow or rent for a day or so. I need to do some work in my back yard. If you can help a brother out please me know.

    Looking for something like this photo.

    Yeah, I check the Home Depot's around me and none of them have one for rent. I did find one at Sunbelt so I'll do that if no one has one that I can use.

    I've rented these from Home Depot in the past. The one near me doesn't seem to rent them anymore so I'm going with either Sunbelt or United Rental here in a week or two when I rent one again. They work great for clearing out jungle thickets.

    I am looking for the same. Do you think this would clear 2-3 inch diameter bamboo down?

    Easily, you'll just have to take it slow by lifting up on the front of the mower and then lowering it down on the bamboo, reverse and repeat. I've cut trees that diameter with the same technique. Basically the same way you would cut really tall grass with a push mower.

    Could it mow down the neighbors we have that decided to plant the WRONG bamboo (it grows too fast!) in their yard and making it my nightmare?

    Wood chipper would work better for the neighbors.
