I used one of the worse wands ever today

[Larry Cobb]

The New Devastators should be out in a week or so.

Both Non-Swivel & Swivel.

Non swivel how's much??????

 

[SamIam]

$1200 to torture my employees so tempting! They love the Mach 15.

And look the swivel is getting more affordable.

I tried Chandler Thompson's new Devastator wand at MF St. Pete. and I didn't want to give it back. So now I have one too :-)

Any idea when or if Tom is coming out with a 1 1/2 inch wand?

 

[hogjowl]

Why would he?
He doesn't even like 370 owners.

 

[GeeeAus]

Porty wand would be great Tom

Turn in your man card.

 

[Larry Cobb]

Don't think there are any plans for 1.5" . . .

Had a nice discussion with Tom . . .

 

[hogjowl]

I TOLD YOU IDIOTS!

I used my 1999 Prochem titanium today

It has an extra 6" inches in the tube and a thicker walled tube as well.


What a tank.

 

[Todd Millar]

Ever since I stopped using a 2 inch wand my my hand has stopped going numb, and my elbow and shoulder stopped bothering me.
I will never use a 2 inch again, It is to much wear on my body and not worth it to me.

 

[hogjowl]

I'm not even going to say anything.

Thank you

You should see what I got coming.



And I agree with you..

Well show us!

I've said it for years. I think the first guy that develops a decent 1 3/4" tubed wand and gets a vacuum hose manufacturer to make 1 3/4" vacuum hose is going to hit the mother load.

 

[hogjowl]

2 inch is king. You alternative types are all gay

 

[steve_64]

Inch and three quarter with a flare on the end to two inch. Same as the stair tool. Prichem quad wand and prochem extended stair tool.

My bane was the same way.

 

[hogjowl]

My bane was the same way.

Is that meant to be an endorsement?

 

[steve_64]

Is that meant to be an endorsement?

I did like my bane wand but don't use it anymore.
And that stair tool is inch and a half flared to two. I just pulled it out for these stairs. It's a new tool to me. And it wasn't $600!

 

[steve_64]

this is Cory, best employee yet.

My shoulder and wrist never hurt this bad using those tools.

 

[hogjowl]

I tried going to that 1.5 tube PMF that Melon was hawking last year. I liked it, enjoyed using it, but in the end I had to put it away. The humidity down here is bad and my customers noticed the longer drying times.

It was embarrassing actually.

I have only gripped a 2 in wand and thought omg my arms will fall off if I used this daily.

But with a glide they may not be to bad. I'm willing to give it a try one day especially if it really helps dry times.

Here is a quote from "2013"
You have flip flopped many times over the years on 1.5 versus 2.0

If you are young and in good physical condition, wrestling 2 inch hose all day won't be too hard on you. As you age, you will begin to as yourself what the point is?

I reached that age last year, at age 54.

I now use a 1.5 inch wand and whip.

I don't have a drying time problem, nor do my carpets look any less clean than they did when I was following the bulletin board culture.

I felt the same way when I was using my Mach12 wand. For the cheap price of a mach15, it's worth trying. I won't go back to 1.5" unless my joints tell me to

 

[hogjowl]

You caught me.
I make everything up as I go.

That's because you didn't have any suction through the tools with the Bane.........
