Hi, I'm new here but I am on Automaticwasher.org.
I'm not into vacs that much, but I think it's going to grow to be a hobby like washing machines. I've got a Dyson DC04 De Stijl which is battered, bruised and broken at the moment, but I hope to have it running shortly (Clutch hose was taped up when I got it and it was used to cover up a huge rip, I left it and the tape died a few months back and I haven't used it since, but now I've decided to fix it. Also the post motor filter needs replacing, ordered one, just lost it!). The machine has got lots of chips, for instance at the top of the wand, the bin handle and where the crevice tool would go, I kept the crevice tool on the wand where it would attach. But it does work. I'll post a pic and a new reply with my other hoover as I can only have one picture at a time.
Here's the Dyson...
