It's a forum - get over yourself

Yes your right it always seem the same people that start.

You’re right. It’s always you that starts these threads.

Thing is Herman, you think your designs are the best thing since sliced bread. They may well be but for us to ‘try it’ and ‘you don’t understand’ then we will all have to retire to the shed with a hot air gun, bit’s of plastic, boxes of screws and start bending.
To be honest although there’s plenty of hot air on here I’m not sure there’s many benders.
Just make a proper job and send it to Gardiners for approval then if it’s that good maybe he’ll put them into production as you obviously aren’t in a position to do.
The worlds moved on, people have busy lives and can’t be arsed with closet brush fondling these days. We just pick up the phone and order a new cheap product that arrives the next day .......... and works!

I might also add that if it’s the same few people that answer your posts then I can only guess that the other twenty thousand or so just aren’t interested?

......................... or, make a dozen quality examples, send them to forum members for a review. Send one to me if you like and I’ll test it for a few months, see if it’s better than my Gardiner swivels.

Don't worry Alex Gardiner already knows as he did when I put that quick lock video up.
Dose not worry me if most people are not interested it's normally the ones that say nothing that understand.
Although Alex this time at least give a bit credit for our ideas.
Take note title on video HERME SWIVEL.
You also have our E-Address.
Thanking You,
Herman.

So what is it you actually want?
Do you want people to make their own?
Do you want to put them into production?
Do you want someone else to produce them?
Do you just want to knock Gardiners?

Say I tested one, wrote a glowing review then what? If you don’t have a patent then I might produce them.

Prob 40,000 people haven’t responded so you’ve obviously got a lot of interest.

I haven’t clicked on any of the videos but going by the title you’ve nicked the wagtail swivel design in the past too. Hardly original and yet you complain constantly of Gardiners taking your idea. (Something that’s been around in other applications for over fifty years).

IMO he's got a resentment with Gardiners. Shame really, he's probably the only one on here who has.

I haven't even watched vid or read the thread as I know it will be load of pointless rubbish as usual

It really does comes across like he’s got a chip on his shoulder

Why do you have to tighten screw for??
OH that's right it starts flopping from side to side.

For me, the swivel function on my brush is really useful and I wouldn't want to be without it.
In reply to the above comment - if it didn't move freely from side to side, it wouldn't be a lot of good.  Moving freely is key to controlling the swivel. Some of us like a little more tension in the swivel than others and that's one of the functions of the screw along with taking up the slack from wear and tear.  However, on that score, I've used mine for several years and only had to tighten it slightly about half a dozen times. I don't consider this an issue considering the amount of use it gets.

Got to say though, that I have made parts that I use myself that I feel are better than production versions and I'm sure I'm not alone.

I have a swivel I got years ago , couldn’t get on with it , I think design might have changed  a bit .
I would like to give it another chance as didn’t  give it chance first time round, but if it’s now changed there seems little point
Going to the shed of doom , I may be some time !

[P @ F]

This is what I found , swivel bottom centre , any point or not ?
