That top notch spreader is an absolute brick.

The top notch spreader weighs 6 ounces, what's the point of a lightweight pole and then sticking 6 ounces out on the end of a 6 feet fulcrum?

Exactly.

It would be helpful if Kieth was to post on this thread, bit of info on the pole and if he can offer Titanium block's, he's no doubt read the thread.

What do you reckon Keith? Any chance of another piece of quality titanium engineering for these poles?

I'd have a set off you.

There is a certain irony in matching a Defiant pole to a Top Notch spreader block that has nothing to do with weight imbalance.

If you read the Defiant home page, you'll see what I mean

I would love to make one, I even have a tried and tested Quick Release Spreader Block I designed over 10 years ago, that actually works and it 100% reliable and built to last in Titanium.

Problem is - I'm just to busy and maxxed out with work to add anything else to the already over-burdening work load.

Someone who I made a Pole for the other week asked me "Which Spreader Block would you recommend?" Did not have to think about the answer - they are all crap, never seen a well thought out well built one to this day.

But for a basic well made one for now - Andy Bull (Weston Dev.) Andy does not make crap


~ Remembered one - the Original Solar Bow lock one was pretty good

If you fancy remaking your prototype block to go with my pole then let me know as would love a unique bit of titanium!

I think Custom Angling do a couple of different Titanium blocks at a decent price.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
