    Vacuum Storage...What to do?

    Ahh the answer. What I do is throw away the hoses, bags and motors, cut them up, accessorize them with found objects and repaint them and then they are good for any environment. But, maybe that is not what you had in mind (smile). http://www.goodfirm.com/marksart
