Good vid and thanks for sharing. The lesh or something similar to the lesh also comes in left or right hand side serrated edge depending on whether you are right or left handed. The biggest problem with plugs is determining the depth and size of the plug, too small or shallow or jagged can kill the roots leaving a ugly yellow dry spot on the grass that will not make any home owner happy. I find a straight downward cut does a better job instead of an angled cut towards the center because it leaves the grass in the middle of the plug unscathed and able to keep growing and repopulate the the outer edges.....my 2 cents worth
