*by N***S on April 1, 2018*

Works perfect, it’s nice for millwrights who do everything from fitting to welding to burning with a torch then back to working on a greasy coupling alignment, then back to taking shim pack elevation shots. We constantly are doing different things all the time and have always to keep bills facing forward. This makes it super easy and it’s actually more comfortable then the standard head liner with ratchet.
