« on: November 06, 2010, 09:12:39 pm »
ok im trying to go diy and i was wondering if this would work as a pole to put my wagtail on or to maybe use as wfp later on? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BRAND-NEW-3m-%20-TELESCOPIC-LANDING-NET-HANDLE_W0QQitemZ190317013303QQcmdZViewItem?rvr_id=164218414140&rvr_id=164218414140&cguid=a151bba012b0a47a44c264a2ff6152c3

looks a go-er .    i sometimes use a wagtail on a pole from up my ladder . not a really long pole ,only about 8 feet,  but find it easier than poling from the ground in some cases  such as above a sloping porch

you will need a pole about 5 metres in length to reach the top of the first floor window http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhLPow15lHA try this you can buy them at window cleaning centerhttp://www.windowcleancentre.co.uk/sectionlist.aspx?sectionID=10  and good tool to have,they have nt any in stock at the moment but may be worth giving them a call or finding another supplier.

decided to go to screw fix and buy some new toys lol i got a 8 foot pole which reaches all my custys to windows so im chuffed and its got attachment for a brush aswell for doing conny roofs, just needs a goose neck on it. bought a few other tools, it was unger which i cant get on with, i love my little 6 inch wagtail to much due to it being able to turn with ease.

may i will work but consider that your pool should be at 8-10 feet, so can handle the work easily. Nice idea .........
