I wanted to put our Glide on this newish AW29 today to do some carpet cleaning and there was no way it would fit ...After a hundred phone calls, I figured out within the last couple of years the AW29 have gotten substantially fatter...

So now I get to make two glides for this turd but it really leaves me wondering how in the hell people are getting our Glide on the new head.....

15mm

across in several places end to end it varied by 30 thousandths
from 0.580" to 0.610"

.610 converts to 15.494mm

Well **** me again, humblievable..


I showed Lisa those pictures and she says "Mike, neither of those two are real AW-29s..."


Lmao.




Good grief.



I won't blame the person that sent me that telling me it was but good Lord I'm glad we figured this out before I made 200 brush glides for it.

"You" need to make a glide that fits? Can we please get some pics of you in front of a milling machine innovating away?

Please where coveralls with milling’s all over your belly.

Think of the PR opportunity!

What the deal with John Olson? Is he all better now? Is he the guy on the milling machine? Hope he's feeling better.

John is no longer involved.
He had a long overdue back surgery this week and the results remain to be seen but COVID left the hell of a mark in many ways on him.
