Anyone else plot out a mental tool path while cutting their yard? Or am I alone here?

DOC is pretty much nailed down at 2" per pass, but whats your feed rates guys?
4 steps an hour
I have to pace myself and take a lemonade break
with my new lawn mower, edger, and blower… i get the yard done in under an hour… it’s self propelled and it can go at running pace. I also used optimized tricordial cutting passes. Way better yard tools than when I was growing up. Especially the edger/trimmer.
HAHA i would love to see your tricordial into tight corners on a lawn mower do you also do a finishing pass around the profile?
that’s what the edger/trimmer is for… however I start with the finishing pass so I can blow the “sawdust” back in to the main part to be mulched.
Awesome thread I must say!

I discovered (before I got my x-carve up and running) that starting in the center and moving clockwise I didn’t have to readjust the exit chute every iteration. Thanks to this thread, I see it now, clearly.
