Well I suppose it beats sticking dildos on a trolley.
-
You made that look quick 'n' easy. But isn't that like a wagtail? I use a wagtail, though I'm a lot more 'clunky' with it than what you are with your pole.
-
Can I purchase one of these H MAN?
-
The wagtail is unable to be used the way we use it in the video.
The best way to find out is try it with a standard Wagtail see if you can emulate the same movements as we do.??
Then you will know what the different is.
Yes it is a bit clunky but is a heavy duty movement.
Using it on the pole you now it not going the break in a hurry.
Could be designed a little bit slimmer. :)
-
I like the bit at the end that you say ( THATS JUST ABOUT IT ) ;)
-
Also good doing smaller glass as well.
I this one shows you have to watch out for people that like to jog/run
At the end of video see the bloke nearly get speared by the pole. LOL

I didn't say it was clunky, I said I was clunky with the wagtail.
I said you looked smooth and made it look easy.
-
It's been done before - years ago!

H Man what I like about all you tools is they look well made and the finish is superb. I am sure there are many manufactures out there waiting to steal your ides. You are like breath of fresh air to our industry.
-
The only thing is there will probably not be squeegees in the future. Do you not think?

I have heard your voice before somewhere, i am sure you are the man who invented the Wagtail. :)
-

OH miss read it sorry.
Also this one not going to get a loose/wobbly movement after a week or so using.
Unlike other ones that wear very quickly at the swivel point.
-
thats about it ;D
-
my wagtail getting all loose now. are these ones for sale yet?
-

I do quite a few shop windows every week and have tried wagtails which I found very quick once you get used to them. The problem was, as you point out, they don't last and are not very durable. The last one i used was, I think, an Ettore and it broke after 3 or 4 weeks.
How long have you been using you home made one and has it with stood being dropped etc? Thanks.

This one have been using about 4 month now as you may see that we have a Sorbo channel on it also.
so not going to bend or break in a hurry.
Also the swivel has no movement ether.
Because we have put a metal sleeve in the disc screw/bolt is smooth where the disc is.
there are few other modifications done also
But everything works like it's new.
The Wagtail is a good concept but it was not thought through properly.
Have done many modifications over a number of years.
Mainly Wagtail squeegees.
It seemed that the weakest point was the swivel as said this particular point wears the hole in the disc.
Caused from the small threaded screw/bolt that goes though it.
Of cause you then tighten the screw will not fix the hole that has been worn by the screw.
There are many other ideas we have done also regarding the Wagtail.
Many other ideas relating to window cleaning and put them up on YouTube.
You can check them out on this https://www.youtube.com/user/WindowCleanerBloke;
Or we also have a FaceBook DIY Group that that addresses the very thing you are talking about.
And there are many other ideas /fixes relating to window cleaning.

Hello!!!

No not selling them.
At this stage.
But maybe the manufacture might incorporate some of these ideas into there own squeegee.
Just ask him why he hasn't.
