Title: flip fast angle adapters
Post by: SB Cleaning on October 26, 2011, 02:45:06 pm: Can any one tell me where you can buy them except gardiners?

As usual can't get hold of them and I'm desperate to order one as mines just snapped!

Any help would be great.

Cheers for the reply though lee!

if you need standard angle adapters mate just pop into your
local home bargains shop and buy a adjustable duster these
have the standard angler adaptors ,only difference they are grey
but at £2.99 and no p+p a bargain

Halfords.

http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_715063_langId_-1_categoryId_230509
... £4.99 (+fuel, unless you're going there anyway ;))

Of course the DIY option is usually cheaper, it depends on how much time you want to spend finding the right product, travelling to get it and doing the job. If you enjoy it, as I do with some DIY jobs, then it's worth it.

The FlipFast Quick Release lever has a few mods to make it slightly lighter and make moving the angle quicker and easier.

SB - I'll email you a little later.

Post by: SB Cleaning on October 28, 2011, 12:17:11 pm: I recieved my flip fast today i have had a go with it and I have to say what a gadget!!

Its going to make my working day so much easier with out the hassle of turning that cogg thingy all day it made my finger and thumb sore!!

As for people saying make one yourself I don't thing I could do as good of a job, well worth a tenner of anyones money i reckon ;D
