Rooo Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 As the title says, I am after one of these Bamboo whatseethings that look like a big tennis racket, that you beat carpet rugs with. No smart remarks please I 'm sick of my wife using my head for this purpose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sevenhills Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 I think they are called Mattetklopper and I'm sure the other half will know what I'm talking about. May have to import one from Holland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virt Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 People still use these kinds of things? I think the last time i saw one in use was like 35 years ago when my grandma beat the hell out of her carpets in the yard. Think she had one maded out of willow wood but here is a recipe to make one out of a gardenhose and a wooden handle.

wasas Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 How old are you? They are called vacuum cleaners now, and you plug them in to what we call electic socket, you can find them on the wall of your house, about 30cm up from the floor 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuijimmy Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 That went through my mind too..... plug a vacuum into the socket! If you cannot find one of these things, and really want to beat your carpet, tie three pieces of 1/2 inch hose together and whack away! Use duck tape to make the handle! There's a carpet cleaning place in Nanton???? Where? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Rooo Posted April 21, 2012 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 21, 2012 Between electic & Nanton I am now confused. Who said anything about cleaning carpets? I just want to buy one of them, perhaps I have a fetish. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virt Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Rooo if you haven't found one in a while i can bring one from Denmark when we come to Samui on Vacation July 2-22 if you still need one and is on the island that period. Found a few places where they are for sale here. Apperantly your "fetisch" is widely spread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooo Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 Thank you for the offer Virt, but I would not impose on you. I have seen them in Thailand, driving to Bangkok next week, will pick one up. Thank you again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
