most of the stuff for wfp is a rip off, and most of it is crap, sick of spending money on stuff that doesnt work or last
Have said this before on here.
We pay Snap-On money for Halfords quality.
Nothing we have used is 100% capable of carrying out the job they are sold for. They are adapted from other industries and applications, and not specifically for our industry.
Leaking/failing fittings, hose and reel combinations not being suitable, pole clamps coming away, I could go on, but life's too short.
As far as I can see it, no-one will develop specific equipment for the industry as it simply isn't a big enough demand.
People like Gardiners provide us with products designed to save time, weight and effort, which is as good as I think we will get. Can't ever see a 100% bulletproof wfp set up from start to finish.
