Due to the lack of response from this site I was obliged to contact Connor Farthingford to seek his advice. It transpired that Connor Farthingford, as a child, had a desire to become a demarcation line when he grew up, but sadly had to settle for becoming a farriers tea pot instead.....and a...

True to form, the local chap who deals in imported elongated anthracite wheel hoop trunnions has run out of stock, and is not expecting to get any more into his stock until some time after the end of November. This leaves me with a bit of a problem because I have never fitted anything else, and...

I was once talking to Jaypee, as we used to call him, when he suddenly mentioned his wooden leg. I had not noticed it was not a real leg, I just thought he was rather smaller at that side. He said that his mother had found the leg at the road side and rather than waste it she had it fitted to...

Thank you Roger. It was nice that you were able to manage to find some. I remember Johnathan Peegroft searching several months without success...but then he was looking for something totally different. We all tried to get him to try his hand with fresh trolly grease but he would only argue that...

No. The side nearest the camera has a slight amount of lean inwards, but this has never affected the speed downhill. The gravy stains are totally false. My grandmother, who would be 145 years old had she still been alive, always used a small orange (or sometimes a lemon) when she had difficulty...

Yes...Well that is what I thought.

Thanks for you encouragement, bagless. I am pleased to know that I am not alone, but sad to know that others are suffering too. You observations on debris in the water are borne out by my own experience. We moved house over a year ago and are coming to the end of the "obligatory" rejigging and...

Water does not flow around in the centre of the item shown in picture 1, or at least it should not do. It seems to me that the entire purpose of the central part of this item it to prevent water getting into the item shown in picture 2. Perhaps the picture does not show clearly enough that the...

Well, kind sir. "It would seem to me that the "top hat" as you call it, is a float that shuts off the airflow to the fan if water gets too high up in the main central chamber or if the tank is overfilled." You are correct there. I do not know if this item, which I refer to as a " "water safety"...

The "bucket" is a very straight forward plastic tub with an inverted swan neck tube directing the dirty air and its contents down into the space below the separator. A chunk of the base of the separator is cut away (along with the seal to allow this to occur. I think this ends what has turned...

The motor unit draws the "dry" air up around the fluted central plastic molding which itself forms the outside wall of the "water safety" mechanism. This mechanism, which is about as useful as the instruction manual, is simply another plastic molding shaped like an inverted top hat, the crown of...

Well thank you for your interest so far, I have taken some pictures and uploaded them onto vacuumland. All I have to do is get them into this message. The first is the separator :- 01@[email protected] The sucked up wind, dust and debris is directed to beneath the bottom of the separator...

Hello from the depths of the East Riding. It is rather damp around here today, largely because of a vacuum cleaner that can not hold its liquor. I do not think its incontinence is age/work related, (although it has "Date 0302" on the model identity label), because we only bought it about five...
