Abstract
A vegetation trimmer apparatus with two rotary cutting heads. In a preferred embodiment, a left arm and a right arm protrude forward from the main body of the trimmer, thereby creating a void between the arms. The apparatus easily cuts around fence posts and small trees when the operator maneuvers the apparatus such that one head passes on each side of the object to be cut around. The apparatus comprises one or more, preferably flexible, cutting members attached to a whirling disk at each head.
