Educate me on weedeater wire...

I've never put more than 3 seconds of thought into weedeater string before

Are there any superior brands or attachments that I should opt for other than my normal string?

I haven't seen much difference in brands of string...but I wouldn't use anything other than normal string due to safety concerns...

I use Stihl .080 round line no matter the brand. Seems to last nearly as long as the thicker stuff, can pack a bit more on the spool, and it seems to let the head spin a bit faster though I've haven't tried using a tach with a fresh spool of each string to verify. Never use that gimmick string as all it seems to do is jam in the trimmer head.

I cut individual pieces.

I use .080 on my Cub Cadet weedeater. Works great. Every weedeater I've ever had, though, has the one same fault. None of em are fast enough to keep all the yellowjackets from gettin past that cuttin head.

I must be doing it wrong. I hate dealing with it in every way. I hate getting the cap off my Stihl. I hate that the line jumps off the spool like Fluoro off a spinning reel. I hate that if I don't bump it every 25 seconds it breaks off at the head making me deal with the above. I HATE IT!
