The tool i will do it with next time is called a spokeshave, just looked it up in screwfix, 8 quid. ;)

Tony

Tony, not wishing to sound a know-it-all  ;)

BUT ( and remmber im a carpenter ) a spoke shave would really struggle with the plastic, infact i would go as far as saying its a no go, dont waste your 8 quid

in all honesty

i dont think you will beat the angle grinder, sure its a pain when it melts, but it makes a hard jon fairly easy

the only other think you might use is a sabre saw ( or a reciprocating saw as i belive is the correct term )

As far as i know there is no different bristle grades with the mono', just the flocked one. I got mine from cleantech but they don't have them on their website you have to ring them. I like where cleantech place the jets & the connectors they use but you can get them from most places. ;)

Pole- excellent, what a great product, i'm holding out till i can find the correct words to do it justice. :)

I didn't know that, maybe it's the stiff one i've got as i've always felt it would be a better brush if it were a little softer.

Do you supply these xline?
