March 27th, 2015 (Stone Mountain, GA) — Drywall finishing contractors will enjoy greater control, safety and productivity with the new model 8000 Wizard handle from AMES. Unlike traditional, longer handles, the Wizard places users’ hands directly over the pressure plate, reducing the effort required to do the job.

The compact handle, 40 percent shorter than similar products, allows for greater maneuverability and control by staying directly in front of the user. Ergonomically and intuitively designed, the reversible front handle will grip securely and comfortably into the user’s hand.

By eliminating standard brake handles, the Wizard eliminates the learning curve associated with them, allowing new users to be as fully productive as seasoned pros. Its small size further simplifies work in tight spots, cutting down on wasted job time.
