Concrete poker

[Brendan]

Anyone tried the Milwaukee M18 pencil poker?

I know they do a bigger flex version but rarely need a poker and got three small pads to do, so rather than hiring a petrol one three times thought might take a punt on one

I got a cheap (<£100) 110v Chinese poker a few years ago for occasional use & it does the job & is still going. I would also be interested in a reasonably priced battery one though if any one else has some experience.

I’ve got the Makita version, bloody brilliant little thing for small jobs.

I bought a second hand honda engine poker had it for years and sold it for more than I paid for it and being a honda never let me down even when I had not used it for a couple of years .I have found if you buy a genuine Honda engine on small plant it always sell well

I have that too, probably lacking power compared to the bigger battery kit these days, but for edge of shuttering or block wall poking it’s brilliant! everyone calls it the Dildo..

I’ve the same been a great tool even with older style batteries, I know mark Harris just bought one he posted on paving group looks a handy tool if your in that system

I haven't tried it, but I think I'll use it in the future.

Got the 1.2m variant of the Milwaukee poker. To be fair it's pretty good although I could do with the high output batteries as the standard M18 don't last too well
