Regarding making truck mounts...
"No.", we do not manufacture truck mounts. I burned out on doing them years ago, actually, even though we had some great designs, especially at the last.
When the ideas for hose reels started coming to me, the ideas for truck mounts, stopped. Maybe they just ran a certain course that simply ran out. Can't say for sure. But whatever it was, the inspiration of new designs simply doesn't resonate with me now. And I have no idea, plan, etc., to re-visit it somewhere down the road.
Hose reels, on the other hand, excite me in a way that I can't seem to exhaust. And I like that. So hose reels it is.
Yes, Interlink carries our reels now. So has
Jon Don on an evaluation basis for a few months now. And a few independent distributors. This will include
TCS, as of the first order they're getting ready for us as I write this, which goes to show how serious I am about NOT doing truck mounts.
RA, by the way, now has 3 trucks with the Triangle Reel kit in them. (One is a Single Capacity, one is a Dual Capacity and the last is the "Dually" Dual- Drive / Dual Capacity shown at the Experience in Atlanta) It's one of our most popular kits. NOBODY who has one doesn't like it. But it's not for everybody, mainly because to use the Low Profile Supply Reels that are part of it, they
have to be connected "live" (so we make sure that everyone who buys them knows before they buy) and some people simply don't like live reels.
Hose reels are what we do now. But there is more coming. The ideas for the hose reels all have come from the core concept of saving space in van interiors. And I have a LOT of ideas related to that that aren't "hose reels".
But we have to be sure that everything, hose- reel- wise is running as smoothly as possible, before the new ideas are brought into existence.
Thanks for taking your time to read the above.
