Don't get me started Tyler.
There are two things that really grinds my gears: lounge seats fitted to ride-ons,
and leaf blowings. Those that rev them (as you described) is a particular annoyance.
Who do they think they are? What are they in charge of? A racing car! mad

Roll and Rock may not be noise pollution but leaf blowers are!
I wish we had an ODK Sniper Service for all this.

I'm going to take a cold shower!

You would hate my old 1989 Ryobi lawn Hornet with lawn sweeper attachment. It sounds like a WW2 air raid siren. Just be grateful I use it once a month if that and only for about 10 minutes max. You would prefer my friend's Weed Eater blower (aslo an Electrolux company) which is incredibly loud but at least has fixed throttle settings.
Here is a vid of one like his with the sound. I quite like the noise to be honest!



Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!
