yes it was very price but for the amount of time im saving it was worth it for me cause now i dont have to spend 6 hours a day for 6-7 days to do my trimming when i can now do it in two days for 5-6 hours each day
to me i would rather spend a bit of cash like that once and be able to have more time to spend with my girl and have more relax time then having my neck and back killing me for a week and a half from bending over trimming,but also i have a very bad neck so it was another reason why i spent the money on it cause ill be in massive pain from all the bending over looking down

I'm not hatin. if i had the cash (& the weed  ) i would buy it in an instance. no need to justify the things you buy with your own money. =)
...but being the tinkerer that i am, it's second nature to reverse engineer things so that it is accessible to me, budget-wise.
but yeah, what strain were those purps?

With a business license they can get those vacuums at wholesale prices and throw one in without a markup. As for a bucket, well, pretty much everything fits inside to save on shipping space. The weight of the vacuum and bucket will not affect the shipping charges, as it will have to rely on dimensional weight (lowest accepted weight for that size package) of its relatively bulky but not heavy components.
I'm not doggin the idea or your for buying one, I've been wanting one of these types of trim machines for a few years now, its just that this one looks a little ghetto in how they put it together.

hey i do agree that its very pricey and could be alot cheaper but the store i did buy it from i talked them down from 1350 to 1150. so i did save some money. you guys know as well as i do almost everything in the hobby (or work field depending on what state u live in that its legeal) is way over priced.
but from having it in hand and using it, it does not feel cheap or getto, its very sturdy and it does what it claims it does so i cant complain one bit. and now my back and neck are not killing me the day after triming or a couple days after trimming

If it lasts that long. Dont get me wrong, I'd LOVE to have one but $1200? No way in hell. I'll wait for someone to rip the idea off and sell it for half that.

I notice that there are two speed controls, one for the cutting want & one for the vacuum.
Are the speed controls useful? DO you regularly adjust these settings or do you just leave them both on high speed?

You do need to change the smaller fluffy buds you need to turn the vacum speed down so it wont take the vuds fully off. And for the buds that are alot of leaf you will need the trimming wand speed to go faster

so you typically have the wand speed set to maximum speed for the regular buds?

nah i have the speed about between med and full speed so about 3/4 up for the most part.
i found that the strains that are super super leafy(more leaf then bud) you will have to up the speed to full

thank you. I'm just trying to see if the Speed Controls are even necessary.
With a few modifications, I have an idea in my head on a device that might be comparable to this one but for a fraction of the cost, no more than $200.
I don't want to say much more about it right now, i don't want someone that doesn't know what they are doing trying to jump the gun & end up cutting their fingers off.
When i am done with testing it to satisfaction, i will write up a DIY tek so that it is accessible to everyone. =)

So I'm going to buy one. Not the whole package, but I found a place that sells the parts. I'm going to get the wand ($595), Flexible shaft ($20), and then get my own dremel/router motor ($30) and mount it in a box ($5) plus a speed control ($15) and misc other things ($20). for a total of $685, less than half the retail price.
They want $720! for the replacement motor.
https://www.eztrimming.com/product/complete-wand/
So I'll save a few hundred. Its about what I'd expect to pay for the system. Hell, my plants are coming down this week, hopefully it will be the last time I have to scissor trim.
I already have a vacuum and buckets, I'll probably take one bucket with a good tight lid and cut 2 holes and use the bucket inline with the shop vac and some silk screen.
I'm actually really excited about this now, because building my own wand contraption would have been the hardest part. Everything else is easily available.
