    Happy New Year Everyone!

    No worries. No biggie. I’ve misread several things - I’m guilty as charged! Lol! Just felt it important for you both to know the intent of that post, as I am very privy to its origin. I’ll keep an eye out for what you are seeking, if I ever run across anything, I’ll certainly share it with...

    To clarify... Fairfax88 was not directing his comment towards Lesinutah or Compactc9guy, rather he was upset over the way you both were being treated for simply expressing interest in a vacuum related topic on a website meant for vacuum collectors. Additionally, as far as membership goes, I...

    Thank you for the links! The ends on what it came with are good, so gonna give a shot at using those on a new hose. Either way, it works beautifully and I’m just happy to give it a good home!

    Found this little guy at an antique store. Hose is in bad shape (anybody have one to sell, lol)? Because the hose is bad, I’ve decided to place it next to the sofa and use it as sort of an electric trash can, ha. Threads, crumbs, cat hair, etc. Had to do some modifications to it, but figured I’d...

    Kirby 505

    Question. I’ve been looking for a Kirby 505. Does anybody have (or know someone who does) one? I have a new in box ComVac 1300 that I’m willing to put towards purchase of a nice 505. PM me if you can help.

    D80 hose

    Les Hey! Thanks for replying. Yeah, he’s after original green. There was one on eBay I saw a while back and I was going to order it but I didn’t think he’d care to have the accessories. Now that hose is gone. I’ll be on the road all day today, so whenever you get to looking - there’s no...

    D80 hose

    Does anyone have a D80 hose they are willing to sell? I restored a D80 and gave it to my dad for Christmas (I never would have imagined he’d want attachments, but he does)! Let me know. Can email or call: [email protected] or 601.479.7003

    Very cool! That will come out perfect! I’ve seen pictures of what you can do, this machine is certainly going to the right person! Heading out of town in just a few moments, so have to keep it short. I’ll message more later on.

    New in box ComVac 1300 (x2)...

    Update Well... With as many vacs as I have in my collection (still nowhere close to what many of you all have) I must say that I’m hugely impressed with the ComVacs and have been using one of them as my daily driver. They just work so wonderfully. I really need to tone it down though, as I...

    New Member, new Kirby Generation 3 owner

    Welcome! Focusing on restoration, the Mothers works very well, but you sometimes need extra elbow grease and sometimes a wheel buffer. 0000 steel wool can be super helpful as well. Once you post some pictures, it’ll be easier to see what you are dealing with. Again, welcome! Email me if you...

    Super sweep

    Les This is great! I’m probably just as excited as you are! Thank you for posting all of the pictures. I was very interested to see it’s build against the ComVacs... there are a lot of similarities. I’ll say that since I’ve been using the ComVac, it is really a different beast. It’s a lot...

    Les... That’s a super cool machine! When do you think you will take delivery on it? I’d love to see more pics of it. I’ve never seen one of those in person. Best I can get is Internet pictures. Once you get it, you can show it from many different angles. Does it take the F&G bags - my ComVacs...

    Les Congratulations on the American Lincoln! Those are super cool! Send pictures when you get it! Don’t say never! For the longest time it was a pipe dream I’d ever even see a ComVac. Which AL did you buy? Do you have any pics of it to show? We’d love to see it!

    ComVac Both boxes are in excellent condition. The owners manuals are actually quite thin... Very basic operating instructions and registration cards. I’ve saved the bags, as I think they are very special, and I don’t expect I’ll run across more anytime soon. It’s been a blast to use (the...
