@@SamsungCarper your politeness always wins? Now stick the bloody kettle on and wear some gloves because I wanna feel the burn. It's a good tool but very badly advertised in my opinion. Well done you though.
I can get away with using my lighter on a coated braid without having a tool. But then you cant use mono or fluorocarbon as the heat in the tube melts it. Its a decent bread punch tho 🤣
Horses for courses i’ve used one and it works fast and fine. You’ve made it look bad faffing about and using it wrong heating the wrong side… the tubing your shrinking is closer to the metal tube away from the hook point….I could make a video and make it look …….i suggest you watch a nash clip and see how to use properly 😂
Ive used it since and got it to shrink faster, however once youve shrunk your tubin how are you straightening your hooklink without having to get the kettle out? Unless you dont straighten them...?
@@SamsungCarper I would move the curly bit at the end so it is in the center of the tube and reheat the length of the tube ,that should straighten out the end curly part as it did the rest.also a mini torch would be easier than a lighter ,it doesn't really matter if its 10 or 20 seconds, its fire and heat so use with caution and adjust to your needs.
What a load of crap... Why do high end manufacturers bring out shit like this. I hope people dont just buy this crap because it has Nash written on it.
@@SamsungCarper its not that hard to thread it for example, just tie a loop or twist the leader between your fingers a little. Also id moisten it with saliva and fan out the heating a little more an those Problems dont occur anymore. If you dont want to bring a kettle this is the best alternative
@@theblobfish9614 i do mention you have to tie off the rig in order to thread it everytime, but still, you shouldnt have to. Also it should slip straight through a tube, not get caught up. The instructions state 10 seconds of heat where the shrink tube is, tested, failed. Takes around 20 seconds. Then you come to the issue of straightening your rigs after shrinking them. If you tie off your rig firstly then attempt to straighten your hooklink material you'll always be left with the last few inches (tied off end) curled. However the only way to combat this are two methods 1. Cut an extra 4 inches of hooklink, straighten then cut and tie off. 2. Use a long latch needle on tied off end and send the needle down the tube to help straighten the rig But then after trying the two steps above i noticed i didnt have a third hand to hold the rig taught in the tube because the hook was not long over the tube edge. Trying to hold the rig, need tube and lighter seemed a bigger faff than just flicking the kettle on at home when having a 'rig session'. As for the few that don't own a kettle i reccomend boiling water in a sauce pan and using the heat from that to shrink any tubing and straighten rigs, this can be done both at home and on the bank. I loved the idea of it hence why i brought it, but it turns out its just a gimmic and im not ashamed to say i've been had.
If it was a small battery powered heat gun with a rechargeable battery where you could tie 4 or 5 rigs up before it went flat, stretching the hook link out and then heating/straightening/shrinking all at once then id have been quite excited as I dont always have a kettle on me for day sessions etc. This is exactly what I thought the tool DID...then I read the instructions and found id just brought a copper pipe....fuckin screwin!
Yes mate! Its brilliant. I had the nash box logic and the fox one before. This is just so much better. Less little containers and annoying things like that. I've done a video on the tackle box take a look if you haven't already.
Mate by the time u have finished this rig I’ve done 3 and had a cup of tea with boiled kettle , throw it in the bin and don’t look back 🤣
Terrible isn't it ben! When I brought it I thought it was some kind of heat gun...its shite. Hopefully I save people 💰

Just buy kickers, haven’t used shrink tube in years.
It seems like it just helps you prevent burning your line, if you use a lighter that is or braid.

ideal for very small hotdogs, if ya frying pan is buggered
Made me laugh this has!

Never a truer word spoken 🤣 it is awful. The money they wasted on developing this then to get it to market. Hope someone got a smacked bum.
Another item that catches the wallet 😊
Well, if you dont use it right its no wonder it doesnt work
How have you used it differently?

Sounds like nash wanted to just make extra money...
Would help if you know how to tie a decent rig 🤣🤣
Wouldn't change anything, still be shit.
That thing would get on my nerves, fit for the dustbin
Something else that will catch more anglers than fish
Why have they tried to solve a problem that doesn’t even exist, like who’s idea was this?

I dont even own a kettle as i dont drink tea, coffee, so this is pretty nice. Also he made it look harder than it is, if you practice this is easy
Just another gimmick to spend your money on something you don't need
I just dip mine in the kettle
Best way to do it! Or wave in the steam
Most useless bit of kit ever, makes the nick helleur bait delivery system look useful.....
🤣🤣 worse £6 ive ever spent
@@SamsungCarper 6 quid, what a rip. Off
@@nickflitter7172 just checked the price, i actually paid £8.99...had my pants right down.
@@SamsungCarper that you did
Complete waste of money imo
Expensive bread punch 🤣
@@SamsungCarper aldi bread at that🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mate just put in a hot water.Stop using dhis stupid tool ;-)
U like the korda tacklebox?
