1:52 Can i ask you, what are the silver pins on the rack a tier used for? I have them, but never figured out what for.

I just figured out what the silver pins are You ready for this, it holds the two together to make a table. So you can stock one on top of the other if you look at the package it shows it. It blew my mind because it's so unstable.

@@TheJacks a table..?!?? 🤨😬 Loll. Thanks for the answer.

Mine says 250 feet, but it only does a little above 100. Is there any adjustment, perhaps??

From what I understand you have to push it in by hand and then pull it back using the battery but I don't know I've never had much luck with it

1:40 I love your huge hamac behind you.

It's actually not a hammock It is like a sunscreen shade thing for over the table.

They should make a power tool that grabs on to the steel wire fishtape to help pull, rather than using the notch in the plyers . Something like a tugger, but without having to wrap around a wheel.

Yeah something no matter what you do it's heavy, I know the lineman use winch on their reel but it seems overkill for pulling THHN through the conduit

The metal of the fish seems cheap or fragile. Looks easy to kink. This would be cool if Ideal made something similar

I didn't mention it but it's super cheap it breaks so easy.

It sounds terrible much more trouble than it's worth and for $300. Sorry no way. Milwaukee has been making a lot of duds lately I used the cordless core drill on the job and while in some cases its convenient the battery life sucks, the clutch engages too quickly and often the drill would just shut down for no reason and you had to remove the battery to reset the drill. Very frustrating

I wish I didn't have to agree with you but I do, there has been quite a few duds, and the customer service is gone way downhills since 2020

i have used this tape in the commercial setting for about 8 months so far. from my experience this thing has a huge amount of pulling power, enough like you said to break jetline or rip wires from a taped head if you're not careful, but as far as feeding, make sure you feed it by hand. all the people claiming warranties are binding up the tape because they are force feeding it upon tight bends or turns. i've not had one issue from feeding the tape by hand. also, the steel tape is very weak and flimsy compared to my 1/8" steel greenlee and ideal. you could see from your video how easily it bent entering into the pipe when it got jammed up. keep that in mind. I basically feed it by hand and use it as a mini tugger for long pulls. make sure you go slow and allow the person feeding on the other end to "catch up " to you. if the tape breaks or binds up, it's mostly user error as with manual tapes. good video
