Ummee 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2010 Non-adjustable is cheaper, and imho, better. Strength, Stability and Weight of pole are the 3 important factors for laundry pole. Bamboo pole is definitely heavier than aluminium. It's the clothes that's heavy, not the aluminium pole. Aluminium pole wouldn't make your clothes weigh less. If you compare the same clothes with aluminium pole or with bamboo pole, bamboo pole will definitely be heavier Thanks for the honest feedback! Most likely will be going for the aluminium, non-adjustable ones (unless ID already buy the adjustable ones). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blueocean 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2010 thanks ! that's a useful bit of info to know A bit for drilling ceramic tiles and glass, it has a ground tungsten carbide tip. They can be used with a hand drill, but are best used in a variable speed power drill on a slow speed. When drilling glass, some form of lubricant (i.e. turpentine or white spirit ) should be used to keep the tip cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
