    Other than duct tape?

    Is there anyway to fix this hose? I always thought this Kenmore hose was so thick and heavy. I was suprised at how thin the covering is.

    Nap lifters

    I was in the junk shop and saw a box of 3 Electrolux rug renovator nap lifters. I assume they go on the polisher and not the vacuum? If anyone wants them, I could go back and get them. They were $2.00. I Googled them and the Vac Doc wants $84.99 for a set. They were still in the original box and...

    Air Way Woes

    This is the Air Way I picked up on the curb last summer. It smelled so bad of smoke, I cleaned as much as I could and banished it to the cellar, not basement, mud cellar.

    Dave rebuilds vacuums and has a warehouse. He said he has hundreds. I only got to see the shop on the back of his house. I plan to see him in the new year and see what he has. Such a nice guy.

    Early Christmas present

    First vacumming of the house. Great suction. I do find the power head sloppy to use. It is very quiet and works great.
