Marshall said, "We tried placeing the tuning lever where the diagram mentinos, and when you turn it, the entire tool turns, handle, sleeve etc. I treid to hold the handle in one place as I turned the lever, and man it was like cranking an old modle T. Now I know what they menat when they said that a person could break their arm. Man I didn't feel as if I were going to break my arm, but it was like doing isometric excersizes pushing my hands together nothing budging. My poor instructor grabbed that lever with two hands and had to crank hard to get it to move while trying to keep the handle of the insta coiler stlil. We're both really strong guys but had a tough time with this thing, not sure why. so we tried it without putting the tuning lever on top of the coiler,on top meaning connecting the tip to the top of the coiler. it's a pain trying to grab that little handle of the coiler. Plus the becket kept coming loose from the groove of the coiler and it would get loose and wobbly." Marshall, Sheesh! All that screwing around, when you could just be taught the Olde-fashioned, time proven way and be done with it. Also, if I had an instructor that couldn't have things READY for the student, I'd dump him/her in a N.Y. second! Still think you need to go to an accredited school and quit with this shotgun learning! Joe Garrett, R.P.T.
