Not trying to invent anything it's already there it's how you use it.

I see no point in this video - other than you really are spamming for you tube advertising
im all for DIY invention but really your just going around and around in circles - even to the point when the bleeding obvious is pointed out to you - you just fail to accept others opinions
Best regards

So I’ll put like this.
You had your pole with one universal connection that interlocks with all your brushes squeegees, scrubber etc.
Would you get it??
Would think so.
I may be that you are missing the obvious.

NO - I don't rate the quick Loc system. - I used it - don't like it - mainly at the time you could only have the brush at 90 degrees to the connection - I found many time the ball spring mechanism gummed up or pushed in then you had to fiddle with it
we change complete head of the pole - brush - angle adaptor its simple open clamp - pull out - separate pole hose ( quick release fitting ) do reverse for new brush/tool or whatever
I much prefer the screw thread fitting on a brush - its tight, robust and solid in use

Ok so you don't like the Quick-Loq system.
Well unless they change something the one in the videos are the one's received from Gardiner believe first prototype run.
Have had no problem with them other then male part was a little sticky/tight fit.
Easy fix just sanded till it had a smooth fit.
And never NEVER had the pin stick gum up or come out.
Also sanded the inside edges of the female QL where the pin goes this way you do not have to push pin down when inserting it.
As said before had them for 6 years and still going strong.

H Man, im also for DIY modifications and adapting things for your own personal preferences.
However, you should post your ideas local to you and not onna forum which is open to the world! Without taking it too personnally mate, many have posted on virtually all of your posts, on how behind you are compared to the vast varied products that we readily use and have done so for many many years.

First don't take things personally.
Secondly if I had follow your advice and only posted locally the Quick-LoQ wouldn't even be in the UK now, as post video on a USA forum where Alex pick up the idea.
Know there people maybe don't like or even don't understand some of the ideas come out with which is fair enough.
But see that there only few .
Other PM me.
This why there not many repliers .
Mostly the negative ones.
So will keep on posting while there people that understand what we are doing to help make window cleaning easier.

You can’t PM on here.

Sadly H man is unaware of not being able to pm on here or that he’s still the the 1970s
I’m sure its click bait or for You Tube revenue each time we click on his back to the past posts
If only he could sell his tenacity 😁
-
You won’t get a single penny from YouTube if you only have 15 inbred window cleaners clicking on your links.
100 times that perhaps but it also requires ad integration.

I Love the quick loc now they all seem to actually fit together properly. I think it's great.

His video reminds me of when I once got really drunk and started texting my ex-girlfriends.

that's my point - it didn't to start with - also why would I buy a product then have to sand it to fit ? - oh hang on ive just brought a new car but its got the wrong tyres on - I'll go and scrub them down to the correct size ::)roll
the quick loc up until recently still was attached at 90 degrees - as said in an old resurrected post this upset the balance of the brush at height - they now do a 30 degree version to match screw thread sockets - but I find a simple change of brush and adaptor as a unit very quick
perhaps HMAN (as the inventor) of quick loc has some axe to grind with Alex over his successful development of the quick loc system

Strange Herman, you fail to mention you sell the same thing as Gardiners but under your own name! Are the video’s intended to drum up work for you (I never click on them). I doubt Gardiners have done anything wrong regardless of who invented it. Alex isn’t daft. ;)
I just wish you could put more input into the forum rather than every post being a link to youtube. I’m sure you might have some useful tips for a change instead of piggybacking Gardiners or Wagtails success?
-
I don't think its 'piggybacking' or anything of that sort.
Wouldn't surprise me if it was simply the heat. Which is sad but thats what happens when you're an Ozzie and married to Dolly.

You can think what you want, all you seem to do is whin about things but not much else.
You said yourself you don't even click on them ( the video your own words.)
So if not interest that's OK but if your not watching video at all, might be best to say nothing.
Videos find it is better then writing pages trying to explain things.
Regarding square locks or squeegees anything that has been done in videos is to improve the way they are used.
Only for the benefit of the user.

You’re talking a load of wielocs Herman!

i much prefer the quick loc fittings compared to the screw thread goosenecks......the brush sometimes didnt fit straight on the gooseneck and would work loose sometimes....very annoying....
once you find a few good fitting ones i take them off and put them on my new brushes when i change em.....
