Anyone got a Pin Snake (family friendly!)?

What happened to your £2 cloth on a stick?
What I do in the privacy of my own home is nobody else's business! 😄

The cloth on a stick is OK for some tasks but can't bend around corners. I'm tempted to try the toy snake with a cloth on it, worth a go for for £5. Might be a case of buy cheap, buy twice though.

You’d need to get all the Velcro bits on the toy snake so it gripped the cloth I’d imagine.
 
Threw one if these in my Amazon order. It's a lot thinner than I expected, AA battery for comparison. You could double it up, or make it any length you want, but even with a cloth over it I can only see it being useful to remove dust.

I'll keep hold of it as it may come in handy for dislodging something in difficult areas on a Pinball machine, or something outside of Pinball.

Still interested in getting a Pin Snake.

I'm going to get one. Some might think it's silly or there's a cheaper option that does the same thing but I've spent more on just cosmetic stuff (art blades, side armour etc) so happy to try this out and see if it's useful.
 
Lucky enough to have been given one for Christmas.
Really pleased with it.
I struggle to reach the back of games to clean without moving them ( I can’t move the machines at home ). With this I can, so saves time and my back!
Will need to order some extra cloths - one for cleaning, one for waxing etc.
Recommended gadget 👍
