There is something about the Mk1, I like it better than the Mk2.

I tried something new today, first of all by accident and then I tried it on a few windows.

I forgot to fasten one of my clamps and the brush started to swivel on the window, I had to lock my gaz brush because I had two things swivelling, once I locked my Gaz brush and tried it, I was amazed by the action, but it would take some getting used too.

Thats it, I still haven't got round to bolting mine yet -  I'll do it tomorrow. I had a few odd angle cleans today and would have really struggled without a swivel.

I will try to find it later but i saw a website yesterday that had brushes on it that had that mark 1 design on them,they were brushes that were used for floor scrubbing or something but the swivle joint was exactly the same as the mark 1.I have 2 of the mark 2 swivles and to be honest i don`t know why people like them,if anything they slowed me down.

what i did was before i put the locking bolt and nut on was to grease it, its a lot more
monouvarable now, and you can ajust the tension on the m2, the hex bolt i use is allen key,
but i love the mk1 best,  ;D
