When I first went wfp I used the vikan for my first few weeks, then I changed over to the gaz swivel brush Mk1 version, WOW! what a difference it made, Well done Gaz,
Its a bloody shame he was driven off the forum though, but I'm glad he still visits us on our forum.

Good idea Bazz to put the pictures up, they do explane to the non user how good they are.

I cant see how gaz was ever DRIVEN off the forum (unless i missed something?)
He still owes people money on here (not good). He has given the impression that because he's not selling brushes anymore then he's not bothered about the forum in general.

Hi Dave

We'll fit them to any salmon brush you want.  We normally fit them to the original Gaz brush.

Brush complete with swivel, nozzles and extension is £25 per brush.

You can swivel using an unger angle adapter. Unscrew the adapter and put a washer  in between the two sections so that the teeth can't engage, leave the little spring in place and tighten up just enough so that the adapter can swivel. You then use it on it's side. Dai

Clear Vision - I'm afraid so, they come connected to another device and unfortunately I can't get them on their own.

If I reduced the price at all I wouldn't be making anything.

you have to be careful what size of brush you fit the gaz swivel to,   if its to big or heavy, the swivel mk1
can break, thats why gaz sold them fitted to his light brushes  to take some weight of the plastic swivel,
thats why gaz use to say dont put a vikan on, as they are to heavy, unless jm123 has a different and
stronger one,

The swivel is the same swivel as gaz supplied, the brushes are also the same.

we may look at making a more durable swivel in future but its definitely going to be a lot more expensive, especially as for the swivel to operate effectively it needs to be loose but tight enough to stay in position and not flap about.

mines does not flap about, they move side ways only, the up and down motion, is deleted by the pair of screws. i think only a few of us before gaz left the forum got the improved version, if you look at the pics you will see, where gaz just simply put screws in,
