WCW backpack strap
« on: April 20, 2010, 07:34:54 pm »
Got my wcw backpack the other day, but the straps aren't very secure where the plastic clip conects with the backpack. I'm going to have to secure it with a couple of screws.  >:(

Is this a common fault or am I just unlucky ?

seems not. Mine snapped the day after i got it but didn't make a fuss as I just carry it and put it down anyway. Super bit of kit though. Finally rigged up Ro today, full time pure production now under way :D

No complaints with the backpack other than the strap clips. Got my di today and done my parents house this evening for some practise and I'll go back tomorow to see what there looking like.

Hopefully be using wfp for the majority of my work in a couple of weeks.

Why do people not carry it on their back, after all it is a backpack. lol
I use mine most of the day, I throw it on my back, its only 20kg approximately.
thats nothing.

You dont put that much pressure on your back!
Once you get use to it your back muscles build up and you can easily cope with a measly 20kg on your back.
After all how heavy are ladders? they must be 15kg-20kg!!!
