News Flash : Some Good News on the Glide Patent

[Larry Cobb]

Talked to Mytee today ...

and they said the Patent Office had contacted them ...

and had disallowed some claims on the glide patent.

This should level the field somewhat.

cool beans.


thanks for the update Larry.




btw, why didn't you post your video of the Bentley Wand comparison here on MB?

 

[Larry Cobb]

Mikey;

I didn't shoot the video. A customer took it.

I am working on a new comparison with the Bentley & this new Titanium 14" wand :

Both are good lightweight TM wands.

FCC;

The Bentley does present a nice side view where "the Teflon Meets the Road":

Gotcha!


Can we see another picture of the manifold on the wand above?

I have never seen shiny titanium. I am willing to bet that is a Tony Vietnam special titanium

How is the "titanium" tube fastened to the stainless steel head? I know PC wands had a bear of a time with a hybrid ss/titanium arrangement of tube and head. They eventually went back to all titanium due to those problems.

 

[Larry Cobb]

The stainless head is expanded & clamped around the inserted Titanium 2" tube.

We are performing several mods to this wand.

Jet spacing is very uniform, unlike the "other titanium".

Weight is under 8# and includes a teflon glide.

P.S. Mikey, here is the Bentley manifold:

It's come a long ways since Connections last year !

I wouldn't take that bet. Has the same manifold that "look like zipper wand" has.
