Update After a long weekend I was able to get back into the office and pull out some more information on Wes Alminon, It is actually a company that was started all of 16 weeks ago, biased out of Phoenix. The patent (pending) is for parts of the machine, and not an actual machine. I have more...

A little bit of a wrench in the plan We just had plans for another vacuum come through the office and they were for a Vacuum that is styled much like a traditional Kirby with the side bag, the patent holder is Wes Alminon. I dont quite know what to think we were asked to look at the drive and...
