    I see I was late to post the one I bought:
    IMG_2152.jpg
    I picked it specifically to wash my truck, so was looking for low pressure. Then I had to do a crazy amount of research to find a foam cannon that works with low pressure. It has the attachments and should be universal but, for unknown reasons, the connector doesn't match the foam cannon. And neither Ryobi nor AutoAnything (where I bought the cannon) could recommend a connector.

    I found a connector at Home Depot but it's articulated-- so I have to hold the cannon, instead of getting the extra reach of the wand, which is very inconvenient.

    I've been meaning to start a thread to get recommendations on where I may find a not-articulated connector but, since several of you gurus are helping out here, it occurs to me that one of you may know the answer and could help me out...?

    Do you know the connector details, size, spec etc? Or can you post close up pics of the two? Even details of the articulated one. That probably would be best, since the package for that should say "X" by "Y" to describe both ends. I work with two suppliers of mechanical fittings and might be able to ID what you need, or maybe not, but it's worth a try.

    And dammit, just spent more money because of this place. Ordered the B&S pump saver. Why isn't there an emoji of money flying out of a window?

    I found no specs on the packaging, on line or by calling. I saw a tiny difference in length between the male adapter on the foam cannon (longer) and the male adapters that came with the pressure washer (shorter). That tiny bit of extra length prevented the (female) metal connector ring from securing the cannon connector. I figured this meant Ryobi allows only proprietary connectors but can't get that confirmed AND if that's true, the articulated connector shouldn't work-? :notsure:

    I'm headed out to a shindig (and recently deleted the pics I used to have in my phone). I'll take new pics and post as soon as I can. Thanks in advance for your offer to check around for me!

    :amen: I've specifically asked @Sean266 about this. I just want anything that shows bills flying away., and keep hoping that he, @Bob, or even #MIKE can help us with an emoji that best represents our most-often-shared-experience on this forum. :rolleyes: :annoyed: ;)

    Tools, my downfall.

    Mechanic's,welding,plasma cutting,metal benders, metal lathe but it needs motor,woodworking,
    lapidary,glass, hell even kitchen and craft/art tools. Been thinking of selling my machinist tools, but I hate the thought of selling any tool. I need :help: it's an addiction

    Tools are my weakness as well. I have a small roll away I bought when I worked in the shipyard in 1981-1983. That thing made a few PCS moves with me. My hobbies and homeowner ship skills have grown over the years and I have too many. Wood Working, automotive, Special Motorcycle tools, drill press, Bench grinder, bench mounted wood planer, table saw, dust collector, floor jack, and two motorcycle lifts. I still have my original roll away, a craftsman roll away and a bottom roll away with a work top on it. I am pretty organized everything is mobile and everything is on wheels. I have to shift stuff around all the time, depending on the project I am currently working.

    I do not go near any tool department in any store anymore! I see the snap-on truck and shut my eyes! One cool tool type tool I have is a miniature snap-on tool box that sits on a table
