« on: September 24, 2008, 12:54:03 pm »
I use freedom trolley would it speed me up much more if i bought 50 metres of microbore and left trolley on van when i could?

I did buy 50 metres of 8mm minibore, trouble was plastic reel takes ages to wind in.

i tend to leave the trolly at the front of the custys place and reel the hose around the building so i dont have to move the trolly much i have also linked up 4 barrels in the back of the van so use the trolly as a van mount

I think most trolleys end up being semi permanent van mounts in the end. Its a sort of natural progression.

Hi mate,

How do you connect the barrels?

thanks guys.
at moment i wheel trolley to customers house, i have 15 metres of minibore, so i usually do front and side move trolley about 10 feet and this gives me enough slack to finish back.

im looking at a tank for the van

i still cannot see how a hose and reel from the van will help, BUT i will have the tank and i will give it a try ( i suspect though the tank in the van will be filled with a sub pump at night and then sub pump the water into my trolley )

I started with the trolley, 50m of 8m hose and 8 barrels. I found it quicker to leave the trolley in the van, and if necessary add a standard hose reel to lengthen to 80m. I now have recently bought a 250L tank, off Trike, and this has made things quicker still.
