hello i am looking at geting a one stroke ground pump but they are expensive  , is it posable to have some feed back from anyone that has one or used one  . thanks rob  

Hi Robb
I have a Filbert - it's a 'one stroke ground pump thing' and it's the best thing I have ever done.  I am able to do so much more now that I have it.  I still carry my hand pump just in case, but I would not be without my Filbert.  
Just my 2cents worth.

Hi Robb,

Just to make things harder for you to choose a pump, I have a mini mac lite, which I would not be without    

I have never used a filbert, so cannot compare the two, but my pump has certainly made life easier for me. You can get all the info on the mac pump, and see videos of them in action here    www.macpump.org    

Graham usually has these in stock, but I believe he is waiting on a new order at the moment.

I'm a filbert guy (all black). Its the future !!  but there are many models to choose, dunno where you from but if you go to a care and share day they will be a variety of pumps there that you can have a look at.

I love my Bert and wouldn't be without him. Makes my life so much more simple. Also made this arch using him within 1.5 hours including setting up and packing away my stuff.

Hi Robb,

they are normally called floor pumps!

I have a MacPump and recommend it.

cheers
Danny

I have both, a McPump is 2" taller and weighs a little more so is harder for anyone to push over, if push comes to shove (he he) I would go for the McPump due to it being taller.

I would have to agree with Graham. The mac lite would be a better choice.

I hope this is an unbiased view Andrew    :lol:

i have the mac lite works  good for me. it take two or three pumps to get warmed up then it can blow 260's fully in one pump

I use a filbert and I love it, best pump I've ever had.

I've only tried a mac pump. Just returned home from a two hour wedding twisting session and my arms don't ache at all. In the old days of using a usual pump I would be left in a lot of pain. Single stroke fills a 260q.

It may need a litttle adjustment then as it should not have to warm up. There may be too much lubrication around the sealing ring.

thanks for the responce and advice  i think i will have to come along to a care and share day  and look at what  every one uses then i can make an informed decision  on which one to get    . thanks rob  :lol:
