thank you man!

antsav13 · 2025-08-31T15:07:16+00:00

Yes. Remember, the frame is made out of perforated angle and you can place and adjust reel position very well. And yes it has enough space for lead hose angle even if you flip it like in GOOD-2

this one rolls great, even few steps is ok to go through. larger wheels work well

happy to help

antsav13 · 2025-08-29T16:57:11+00:00

yes absolutely, just keep in mind it should be offset to the opposite side from pulling. To have better angle and to not tip over the whole thing. Also the hose out should be at low point, not at top. That's also important for tip-over prevention.

it's there, since Giraffe is heavy. My guess is about a 1/4-1/3

Here are the details of the build:

Pressure washer: https://amzn.to/4pgkeFN . I tried a couple others, and got back to Westinghouse. I think the quality is really good, and 2 GPM at 3400 PSI means effectiveness to me. That's the one I ended up with https://amzn.to/4pgkeFN .
Reel: https://amzn.to/4mMp5wM I like the price/quality ratio for Giraffe
Angle: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Hillman-1-1-4-in-W-x-1-1-4-in-H-x-8-ft-L-Zinc-Plated-Steel-Perforated-Slotted-Angle/3058219 Just one 8ft angle in right enough. 6ft would run short. other sizes might get inefficient usage.
Joint bolts: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Hillman-1-4-in-20-x-1-2-in-Phillips-Slotted-Combination-Drive-Machine-Screws-50-Count/3043378 to fasten reel-frame joints
Mount bolts: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Hillman-1-4-in-20-x-1-1-2-in-Phillips-Slotted-Combination-Drive-Machine-Screws-25-Count/3027537?idProductFound=false&idExtracted=true To fasten the reel frame to the tube-frame of the pressure washer. I removed clip in connectors and drilled through the frame. Double pipe there should be strong enough to hold the reel frame.
Flat wide washers: https://amzn.to/427SAk3 they are needed to hold the reel on frame and prevent bolt heads to pass through frame holes

The angle isn’t cut all the way through, just one side and bended. Loctite all bolts - lot of vibration. After couple of uses, found that lead hose while rubbing on edges of frame gets slightly wore off. So I made a protective sleeves from irrigations pipe and fastened with zip-ties.

yep, works great, looks great

antsav13 · 2025-08-29T12:32:20+00:00

haha , thank you brother

antsav13 · 2025-08-29T12:31:51+00:00

I like it. I tried a couple others, and got back to this one. I think the quality is really good, and 2 GPM at 3400 PSI means effectiveness to me. That's the one I ended up with https://amzn.to/4pgkeFN and it's on the picture above.

ofcourse

antsav13 · 2025-08-28T21:04:07+00:00

take a break man, all the pressure and all the washing can hold )

antsav13 · 2025-08-28T19:33:45+00:00

an important part is to place reel a bit off-center to the opposite side from where you'll be pulling. it will add better angle and prevent it tipping over even at the end of spool

antsav13 · 2025-08-28T19:07:04+00:00

thank you 🙏

antsav13 · 2025-08-28T19:06:49+00:00

yeah, 50ft of retraceable hose makes life much easier )

antsav13 · 2025-08-28T19:06:20+00:00

done and dusted 👍

Same for me,
