Visited my old mentor's shop up in Portland last week

He's been installing since the 80s and his warehouse still has the same worn-out carpet samples from back then. I noticed he still uses a knee kicker that's older than me, no power stretcher in sight. Any of you guys stick with the old tools even though the new ones are supposed to be faster?

if the tool still works, why change what isn't broken" - until your knee gives out at 50. That old kicker might be reliable but it's not exactly ergonomic either. I'd rather spend the money on a power stretcher now than on physical therapy later.
