    My latest eBay purchase

    Thanks Shane, I would love to buy your power nozzle for my Compact.  I get paid on the 13th, and will send you the money then for the nozzle and the dusting brush.  Do you know what the total would be with shipping?  BTW, you wouldn't happen to have an electric hose for it too, would you?  If...

    This is my second favorite I bought this machine from eBay a few years ago.  It's an early D2 without provision for a power nozzle.  Wish it had one.

    sears triangle brush

    I think you're right Hans, My Mom's Kenmore canister had one of those triangular shaped dusting brushes, and I was born in 61.  She died in 64.  Never seen another one in person after that.  I would like to get one for my Kenmore, so I've been keeping my eyes open for one.

    My latest eBay purchase

    Thanks Fred! That's a beauty you got there!  I bought a C2 almost a year ago, and it came with a complete set of attachments, except it has no provisions for a power nozzle.  This new one does, and I'll share the attachments from my first one with it.  I'm glad I have them because for some...

    My latest eBay purchase

    It's a mid 70's Compact Electra, and it looks super clean.  Has a power nozzle connection, but a standard hose and floor tool.  Now all I need is to find an electric hose and power nozzle and I'll be good to go.  I already have a full set of original attachments...

    Differences in Kirby Heritage I (1981 to 1983)

    I sold the Heritage when it first came out.  The first run did have a cloth fill tube, as opposed to the plastic one.  I think the original idea was that with the Tradition, the plastic tube was a point of failure.  I seem to remember replacing a lot of them under warranty because they were...

    Kirby D 50 San Handy Butler/ What color was orig electric cord?

    Careful buying Handi Butlers off eBay I have bought 3, and they all looked like they had never been used.  When they arrived, they all had been stored with the belt stretched out on the belt lifter.  This caused the belts to become permanently stretched, and rendered them totally useless. ...

    Hoover Dail A Matic Day

    Even the non self propelled models weigh a ton.  No wonder so many of them have wobbly handle syndrome from people trying to carry them from the handle.

    Old "Stink Bombs"

    I think the Crystalator was discontinued during the Tradition's run.  It was still called a cystalator in the Classic III's manual, but was called an air intake nozzel in the Traditions manual.
