I tend to use wintecs a lot as postage free

Usually i am just ordering rubber like last night ordered 84" of unger hard

Don't want to pay postage charge just for that

 
Yeah, I looked at wintecs and they didn't have them. So I bought from WCWhouse, hopefully it'll arrive soon (says preorder?).

Also attempted to mod my channel, but didn't have much luck. Hence I decided to just buy the moerman channel.

Also, does anyone have a good picture of the window side of the channel? I notice they say it fits in the ergotec handles (that's what I use) Does it have not have notches in? Because from a video I saw, I couldn't see any...

just received them 2 mins ago from u.p.s man

they have no notches too fit my ergotec handle

 
frank tried the ergotec handle and now have 2 nice silver marks on my channel, he has now left the building :rolleyes:

i thought i should sepperate the handle first but frank couldnt be bothered with all that

now hes cleared off and left me too it

 
So, will I have to drill it like this:

Or is the channel just short on the window side? Because that sounds like it would be hard to centre. I can't understand why they didn't make the notches, since the other moerman squeegee is, as far as I can see:

View attachment 4004 It has no notches but fits fine as the curved bit of the ergotec metal bit is a perfect shape and the 2 spikes grip the rubber

You can centre it well enough by eye

 
those spike grips are what frank scraped on me channel

instead of loosening the 2 nuts a bit:rolleyes:

 
Thanks daveyboy. Oh well, at least I'll be able to measure and mark. Did you get yours from WCW?
I got mine sent to me by moerman as i have been playing with the prototype for 2 months

That was because I was reviewing it for this forum

It is easy to find the centre as the blue writing on the top of the channel is evenly spaced so stick the handle exactly between the writing

 
It's about the 3rd time in 5 orders they have pulled that stunt Davey.

You order 10 or 12 things, they ship you 8 and you get the rest on 'back order' sometime later.

I will be (on your recommendation) using wintecs for most stuff in future. Like the no minimum for delivery.

 
View attachment 6162 View attachment 6161See what I mean about the spacingnof the words

The one in the ergotec handle in the pic isn't in the centre but would be if the same gap both sides of the handle- writing

The other pic is my homemade 6" from a cut down prototype
Still looks a pretty rough guess though, if you ask me.

There's nothing I hate more than the channel being uneven (even if it's just a couple mms).

So does anyone have their channels off WCW then? Are they even available yet, or are the only people who have them been sent them as early testing things?
