The most we've tried is four in the holder and one in the claw, and they seem to stay in pretty well.

That's a pretty good number, and so far the best tetra holder i've seen.

A solid aluminum rod with tapped holes at each end.

I bet the roller is not part of the drive system but rather an anti-tipping device.

You guessed right. We also have small wheels on the front and rear that serve the same purpose.

what about the arm? Does it extend, or just have those joints?

No, it does not extend. However, it has a maximum height of over 10 feet from the floor.

The roller is not what I was talking about when I mentioned the drive....guess again!


The arm only articulates at the two joints, and last I heard it's about a 10 foot reach.


...Eric beat me to the arm comment
