I've got a gas powered Ryobi brush wacker that I like to use. That really gives your hands a buzz, usually for about a good hour after you use it.

I get them bad after weed-wacking. I self medicated and quit weed wacking.

I just got done trimming the weeds the other day and couldn't open my hands for about 5 minutes. Kind of freaked me out. Guess I've never done that much all at once before.

I've got this attachment, it's a 3 blade gizmo that you put on the weed wacker that turns it into a brush eating machine. Just slowly walk through and swing it back and forth and 5 foot weeds are just eaten. Last Sunday I did it for a good hour solid without stopping, and my hands tingled for at least another hour.
But
FUN. I love cutting down brush. Numero uno home chore. Besides chainsawing - which I will be doing this weekend because of a tree knocked down by the latest set of storms. And the bonus with the chainsaw is when the wife calls out to see how you are doing, you can hold the saw up, put on your best Freddy Krueger smile, and rev the engine a couple of times.

I have a service do my lawn, and they also do the snow removal in the winter. nice deal, saves me from suffering mold allergy in the summer and compressing a herniated disc in the winter.
As a blow to my pride, however, the service is run by a woman who has got to be close to retirement age. She has helpers for the snow, but still.
She's an interesting looking character.
Conversation last week, my brother was visiting for a week (for the games at Miller & Wrigley):
Brother: "At least with my condo I don't have to take care of a yard."
Me: "I have a service that does that for me."
Brother: "Oh yeah, yesterday I saw some old dude cutting your grass."
Me: "That was an old lady, not an old dude."
Brother: "Oh-- I must not have got a good look."
Me: "No, you saw her just fine."
