Singer Fat Cat?

[fan-of-fans]

In a thread on here I saw a vacuum I haven't seen before. It looked like an orange five gallon bucket, and had Singer Fat Cat on the side. I am not sure of the age of it, so may be in wrong forum. I am guessing this is some type of wet/dry or utility vacuum? Did a search here but didn't find any posts relevant.

I believe you're in the right area. The vac in question was a shop vac type head on a bucket as it looks, but it rather than sitting on the bucket like a normal shop vac has wheels on the side of the bucket and rolls around like a large diameter tank vac. Was sold sometime in the earlier 90s if I remember right. I don't remember if they had a float ball for wet use, but I don't believe they did. I think they were dry only, they take normal shop vac type filters as well.
