    Eureka Toolbox Vac

    I am talking about those. There thinner than A bags. If you cut it to size it looks like it would fit.

    Eureka Toolbox Vac

    Looks like you could cut and Electrolux c bag and it would fit. Or a Hoover Z Bag with no paper collar on it.

    How do I remove and replace an old bearing?

    I’ve removed/washed the fan. And I’ve taken it apart and vacuumed it out. It’s a sealed bearing so it can’t be repacked. I spent $4 and bought a new bearing already. It’s a 608-ZZ bearing 7 millimeter diameter.

    Best and Worst Vacuum release of 2025?

    Off the top of my head I don’t remember tons of new vacuum releases. I think the “best” in my opinion was the new Kirby. Another one I thought was interesting was the pencil vac thing by Dyson.

    (Goodwill find) 2008 Simplicity Freedom F3500

    If the fan is damaged I would recommend replacing the motor. People will keep using their vacuum with broken fans and it’ll put stress on the motor. So even after you replace the fan it could still sound loud and off balance.

    Royal prince bearings

    Ben, I’ve watched that video before, but unfortunately my royal uses a different motor than his.

    Royal prince bearings

    The issue is there lots of play on the motor, the shaft slides back and forth. I can’t find a motor for sale and I don’t know how to replace the bearings.
