hi wally the thing on the right is a gutter cleaner just extend the pole it fits nice in any gutter use the scoop side first , then brush out after its a great tool just takes a bit to get used to .
Three more questions then, Dave.
1 - How do you use it? When you say brush out, do you brush toward the downpipe?
2 - Where did you get it from, and how much was it?
3 - Do you use this as a matter of course, or only if the gutters are blocked?
