you got a buddy that smokes? just tell him that your guy is giving you weed to trim his crop and that you will smoke with him If they help you cut your labor in half and have some company you buy a bag turn on the tuns and get to trimming man 6 hours a day for 3 weeks or 12hr/d for 1.5 week

but I guess if you had to buy an auto trimmer I would get on youtube first and watch some videos so you can decide. I just have something against them because of how much head gets knocked off in the process.

but you sound commercial so you probably don't care

i take it you've never had a legit job then? if you want to earn money you normally have to work for it. for 130lb of marijuana i would more than happily trim for 12 hours a day for 3 weeks. i could work 12 hours a day as have done at a normal job and come home with maybe £700 for those three weeks, not hundreds of thousands of pounds. stop being lazy :D

i agree with svchop, take a look at the video's about, you can make an electric trimmer/strimmer for £10, but it does a shit job, if you plan to make hash with the trim and such it's not such an issue if you're trimming bud off, but i'd prefere to have big juicy buds than to have to go and make up a batch of hash to regain the net worth of your product
 
I agree with Pete. There is way worse shit in life to have to deal with than that! DAAMN! I was just telling my friend how bad I want to go and live out on a farm, or in the country on 10 acres! Now I REALLY want too! And cheaper land too! Well DeDe, my unky Teddy (not his real name) has a similar dilema every year, and he hires people at 15-20 bucks an hour and works them 12 hrs a day til theyre done. Trimmers also get shitloads of the "B" buds, which are still really nice! You are gonna need help, or an enormous amount of time and energy.

I do this very same thing for supplemental income. Music, comfortable chairs, trays to work on, and lots of snacks/energy drinks get consumed but we put down 12 solid hours a day. We get paid pretty well, and all the popcorn thats too good for trim but not good enough for end product goes into the joint jug. Works out nice!

So basically what it comes down to is, get a few guys you can trust, pay them enough to want to work hard, and have a story you can stick to.
