Title: When you hold your pole.....
Post by: P @ F on February 18, 2014, 11:35:18 pm
YOU ALL KNOW WHAT THIS IS TO DO WITH !

As above , whatever hand is closest to the bottom of the pole whilst working , what is the distance from the butt cap to your little finger roughly ?

Also , do you prefer a gadget that is easily moveable for complete flexibility of use , or are you a thats gonna be where it is kind of person ?

I will add , that the moveable option will not cause any spinning or hardship in use of said item , its just what you prefer ?

On an SLX, where the red band is to show how far to push an extension on-that's there my right hand is (I'm right handed)
I wouldn't be bothered about flexibility of position for the widget.

For a start im a CLX er , red bands mean jack to me , i did smoke them as a teenager though !

Take your lowest hand , how far from the base of the pole is it to the little finger ?

Trust me , you will get a trial model , even if i dont go public , i have  plenty of materials left !!!!

Lol.
About 4 inches from the base.
I wouldn't be bothered about the device you're making being movable.

Ditto regards it being moveable - get a good quality static version for the end,

Left handed so my left hand is usually 4 to 6 inches from the end, but I can use it the other way as the job dictates.
