Stair too made from Prochem 2" Ti wand ...

[The Wizard]

Has anyone used a Prochem 2" Titanium wand and made it in to a stair tool ?

If you have, how did you like it? Do you wish it was configured it any differently after doing it ?

If you have any pictures of the newly created stair tool, please post them.

Thanks

I cut 23" off of mine, and I wouldn't change a thing.. I do need to have another one made though it sucks when I have to use my Prochem tool!!

I'm 6'2" but my helper is about 5'11" and he loves it also..

I have Tom make me a custom Devpro stair tool, It absolutely rocks!!!

 

[Mikey P]

the Devpro is awesome on steps

You can stand dead center and go to town.


No, it doesn't flip for the riser like the PMF stair tool.

Guess @The Wizard didn't Meet little dickie... I learned to use it, but check valves would probably be awesome.. My jets dribble worse than @bob vawter trying to make it to the bathroom... On stairs, I have to do the risers first, then the treads because of the dribble..

I also want to put a Mytee handle on the flip side, so my puppy paws don't burn when holding the tube..

@Able 1 cut mine down and @Desk Jockey sent it to him... So both handled my wand......

Yea I picked it up and played with it a bit, then wrapped it in plastic sheath and sent it to get cut off!

I feel so dirty!

The most important question is: Does is suck up popcorn seeds and air soft bb's?

Now that I have an extra wand I was going to cut one of them down and make a longer stair tool. I'll post a picture if I get around to it. The wand they sent with the 870 didn't come with a glide so I'll probably choose it.
I was going to cut it out of the middle and reweld. Doesn't look like anybody else did it that way.

Nate and I both had it cut out of the center, easiest way to do it..

Here it is. The devpro stair tool. Baddest stair tool ever made.

 

[Able 1]

I wouldn't go with a straight stair tool, to much stress on the back.. I did a straight 4 jet prochem it was horrible!!

 

[Mike Draper]

Dude, if it's long enough you just bend your knees and go up and down.......wait a minute

 

[Able 1]

Lol, I had a hip issue, and that's why I made it(had surgery,and good now).. S bend is key to keeping your back straight(except for the last two steps).. The straight tool puts too much pressure on your lower back, kind of like a fulcrum..

 

[Able 1]

Make a stair cleaning video with your tool and I'll do one also...

 

[Nate The Great]

It's because of @Able 1 on why I wanted a PCTI stair tool.. I've also read @Jimbo cut one down too... If I got some spare change laying around, I'll Saiger mod the PMF swivel I got... It's a POS in its stock forum..

Ok. Thanks, what I was going to do. Nice welding.

I have.. I didn't put any bends on it.. It's kinda hard on the hands when doing the riser part.
I rarely use it.

Titanium is kinda tough to weld back together? Need to do it with Zero Oxygen as I understand it.

 

[Desk Jockey]

I'd like a 3-foot round shield done in titanium. Any of ya'll capable of making me one?

For critical applications they use a purge chamber, but since this isn't an aerospace component a simple back-purge of the inside of the tube and weld with a large TIG cup is fine.
