Great video! I've never used one of these. When I got it home, it came with instructions (including illustrations) on a piece of paper the size of an index card. I couldn't make heads or tails of it. They called the spring you move back and forth a "pawl spring". Anyway, I can work it now like a pro thanks to your video

Yeah that pawl spring thing is something else! Glad you’re able to use it! Thanks for letting me know and take care.

Thank you for this helpful and intuitive display of how to work this damn contraption I’ve been trying to figure that darn thing out for two hours in the rain. Well I’m trying to hold in a decent size Dukie. Finally I was able to Waterloo, my fat butt inside. I tried to hold much and I could end, but my britches, or about to jump right off me, if you catch my drift, so rank you I don’t know how long I would’ve been out there trying to figure out that darn thing
