Post by: richard jagger on March 14, 2013, 08:10:33 pm: I also have one very heavy. I am sorry I did not make my own as I am sure I could build it lighter and better.Its the hose that weighs a tone when its up at full length. I have taken to using a WFP with a super light extreme brush after I have vaced the gutters. AS a stand alone tool I think they a useless to clean the inside of gutters. Dont use a oscillating nozzle just a 20 degree nozzle.
