Rugsucker runs two businesses and is very busy. I've known him for several decades now. He'll respond when he finds the machine. It does no good to bug him about it. Just an FYI. I know its frustrating, but please give him some space to respond.

Found it --
--6 feet in the opposite direction of where I thought it might be.
It has no name as the above does and is 'Made in China'.
It can separate in 3 parts-
-handle can twist and lift off to fit in smaller box(not found with).
-upper body has motor, compartment for 4 batteries(type C?),switch and outlet for'DC 6V'cord(not found with)on side.
-base that tilts back has dust cup with yellow filter at top and brush that turns with the only 2 wheels.
(Tom,"several decades"?That must be why I feel older,tireder,weaker and closer to death with every passing day!,Jimmy)

"putting it on Ebay"?--Or maybe in the dumpster!I wonder which would be easier??Everything in my old building WILL BE GONE starting with warmer weather!If collectors don't want to collect my local scrap guys WILL!!
"send pics"?--Of the 99 other things I need to do today and the 1000 things I need to do this weekend that is NOT one of them.And if it was and I did it would look like----the above picture!
"what are the measurements"?--They would be exactly what you would expect from seeing it in the video with other well known toy vacs!

Hey Jimmy, why don’t you consider bringing it to the Vacuum Collectors Convention in May? We could all get a look at it. It must be extremely rare and valuable. Wonder how much you could get for it on eBay. More than $200. do you think? You know the more rare it is, the more they pay.

@ Dysonman1
I think he is just like those people on youtube that destroy perfectly working vacuums for fun. He takes joy in bragging about how many valuable and collectible vacuums he has that he throws out every day just to spite people. There is thrift stores, storage units, putting them on the road with "FREE" on them, etc to move vacuums locally other than throwing them out. Putting ads in the newspaper and in community bulletin boards, advertising free vacuums on Facebook, would do a great deal. He could even put them in a storage unit and have the key available. People aren't going to just drop everything and drive 10+ states away in 2 days to pick up vacuums at the drop of a hat. There's no need to be so rude to someone asking for help.

Tom,
"bring to convention"?--I can rarely go places I want to within 50-100 miles much less 500-1000.
"how much--on EBay"?--If the only dependable,experienced EBay seller I could find in the area to work with had not died I might be able to find out about this and 10-40 items a week.
"--$200--"--That would get the above toy,a Suzy Homemaker,a toy Dirt Devil,a real DD,a toy Eureka,a real Eureka & more & more here.
huskyvacs,
"destroy--for fun"--WRONG!I much prefer to keep the good ones running.My most recent repair this week was a new fan on a Decade 80 dirt cup that the customer loved.
"take joy--in bragging"--Again WRONG!I am only stating facts of what is here needing to go to new homes.I might 'take joy'in finding a vintage vac and completing it with original attachments,parts,bag package,owners manual,box,etc as I can do in many cases.(Not brag,just facts.)I might 'take joy'in one of my vacs finding a new home(at prices starting at $0-$20).I might 'take joy'in having an empty building to be rid of along with utility payments,etc.The vacs I do dumpster or recycle are recent Chinese plastic vacs with major problems in most every case.
"--thrift stores--"etc.,etc.--Do you really think a local thrift store or advertising wants a 1925 Eureka,1935 Hoover,1952 Lewyt,1957 Westinghouse,1960 AirWay,1964 Shetland,1966 Sunbeam,1970 Kenmore,& MORE & ETC??
"--storage unit--"--Who pays the fee and then has the time,trouble and distance to deal with?
"--rude--"If so I am sorry.I would mention that when I seemed to be the only one who knew what this was(again,not brag,just facts)Tom noticed that the endless questions might tend to "bug him".
