Any of ya'll have one.
I sparingly used mine.....took it out today to use it.

Note: It has not been bent back and forth like a slinky....

Noticed that parts of the rubber has dry ~cracks~ in them..and I've probably only used them a handful of times....

Just curious how are yours holding up.

I'm back to a cut up water bottle...

To me, the form a funnel is the best thing since sliced bread:thumbup:

I use mine almost daily. I have the early ones with lead sandwiched in the rubber as while as newer ones with aluminum instead. All are fine, dirty but fine. Perhaps yours doesn't get covered in oil often enough. :beer:

I have a couple different sized ones around three years old used a few times a month.....for now they are still good, but do see some signs of potential cracks on each of them

Just kurious for those that have both.
Which one forms better - the lead of aluminum.
I would think the lead is much nicer to work with

I have a lead one that the lead has cracked internally. Now it just flops and folds over at the cracked point

I bought one in 2010 but left in behind in a shop when I left. It worked great while I used it. They still sale them so they must be ok.

I have three I bought as soon as knew they existed. Based on the warnings on the label, mine are all lead. I have no probleme with mine. They are truly a great product.
