    Unfortunately he's too far away from the tack strip when he stretch and he's tucking the area that didn't get stretch or kick.

    8 inches from the wall not a good stretch

    1:46 "I usually hold right here, just in case" (suspicious sudden cut)

    Is this how you make room bigger?

    Do you use knee kicker along with lower stretcher to keep tuck in carpet?

    It helps if you put the head of the power stretcher near the gripper 🤣🤣

    Room to small for any benefit, easier and quicker with a normal knee kicker. I do swear by a power stretcher if used correctly, a tubless one would have been better in this demo

    If you're complaining, make your own damn video. Everybody is a passenger seat Monday morning quarterback.

    Small room, do it with the kicker, it gonna take you less time to finish, unless they pay you by hour, take all the time you want and do it the right way

    Knee alone could of done this. But why don't you use the hammer hatchet?? It's alot easier and you can hook up the carpet to the tacks better.

    • @fredtowns78
      @fredtowns78 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      You a hack!!!

    • @markruby3916
      @markruby3916 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I was thinking same thing!!! I run multiple crews and if a dude A: didn’t have a tail for stretching you obviously do t use a stretcher lol. And B: he has head far to far away from strip!! He is holding less than half of that stretch. I’m not trying to be a dick, but good lord son who taught you to lay rug?
