Improvements Could be made to the maxima with a hose connector by increasing the size of the filter for better airflow and having a mesh screen divider midway in the dust cup to stop the large particles from surrounding and clogging the filter before it even saw any fine dust

Nothing??? If you have pictures or knowledge it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, in advance, -Richard Jolly

Another option The widetrack Royal with its all metal(cast aluminum) housing and fan would probably hold up to the crushed granite. Also Royal type "B" filter bags are much better than Sanitaire's stock shake out or the aging 65 year old "F&G" type filter bags.

I have scoured this site trying to find a picture of that kooky Keeler guy's Kirby or Bison self propelled system. He is the same guy who is now selling the useless Kirby "Bagless Conversion". Does anyone have a picture or video of that self propelled mechanism? ********** By the way, from...

Interesting... Where did you find it?

Another one This is a behind the scenes picture of the Warner Brothers set.

The second olympia one tv ad... ...was filmed on the set of the Dukes of Hazzard. Warner Bros. had made a full town out in the California desert. A picture from the Dukes

I recall that someone on here turned two of those Kenmore Commander tanks into a jetpack.

The 1951 and 1954 Consumer Reports... If I recall correctly, referred to the Electrolux style as a tank in 1951 and as a cylinder in 1954. They referred to the Filter Queen style as "pot, squat models" in '51 and as canisters in '54. ***I found some of the, since taken down, Consumer Reports...

The most Prestigeous Wet/Dry Vacs Fairfax, WaterMatic, & Silver King(I Think?) I am currently waiting on a Fairfax I bought on eBay. Will post opinion when arrives.

Good to see the Original Bag Ask the more experienced collectors to tell you how to polish the Bakelite. That thing will look great cleaned up. The original bag on those 28's is key because everything else can be repaired or found readily on eBay. Here is mine with a generic HouseAid bag.

Government Class... I convinced my most lackadaisical teacher to allow me to present a PowerPoint on Kirby models post 5xx(500) series to he class. I had a picture of most models Dual 50 to Avilir omitting g2000 and ultimate keeping just g6 and diamond. Unfortunately I did not know as much 4...

Can't stand LEDs I have autism, explains the vacuum obsession, and the horrid blue LED light bothers my eyes. Yes, they're efficient and better in every other way, but I just cannot stand them. It gets harder every day to avoid the blasted things.

The spectacular DEAL OF THE CENTURY!!! just got better... Just checked craigslist and they decided that it wasn't selling so they sweetened the deal to $599. "A sucker born everyday" ~P.T. Barnum

Buy her a Dirt Devil... ...and show her how much escapes the high efficiency cyclone and then promptly blows out around the seal before it ever hits the foam and HEPA filters. If that doesn't settle it, arguing is futile.

I agree My nonswivel, non twist, pn1 on my 1205 works just fine, thank you very much. No new fangled nonsense for me.
