    Our entire shop went with wireless crane pendants. I know it's not the point of the video but watching you load the VTL with the wired pendant reminds me of the battles I had with mine loading a large horizontal. Watching the pendant swing far away when I accidentally let it go 🤣

    • @ChrisMaj
      @ChrisMaj  7 месяцев назад +1

      Yeah, I don't think they're gonna go for it any time soon, but I hear you about letting go of the controller, and you're holding the piece cause it's kinda moving on you.
