    Wet/Dry Shop Vac tip......

    When going from dry to wet, I highly recommend removing the bag and filter from your Shop Vac before sucking water..... Who'd thunk it? :dontknow: :BangHead: :rotflm: Jim

    Porter Cable 894 PK Vac Handle Router

    This is the 2 1/4 hp with a vac handle. How does this stack up vs Festool's routers. As far as dust collection is concerned. Please, no opinions. Experience between the two is appreciated. No, back in the day stories, when tools were tools and men were.... oh well Thanks M

    "new" shop vac

    Well, we finally installed the main unit of our Oneida dust collection system last Saturday which we have bought custom seven years ago. We originally bought it for our shop in Apex and then we moved out here to Summerfield. Sucker is heavy, but looks nice so far. Hubby said it will "suck the...

    Shop vac question

    How long of a period can you run a little shop vac? Could you run one continuously for 4-6 hours? More??

    Silly Shop Vac Question...

    So I was running through Home Depot for 'Black Friday' today and decided $20 for a Ridgid shop-vac was too good to pass up even though I already have 3 in the shop. Started looking for the bags for the unit and couldn't find the correct one. Decided to ask someone where they were and he said I...

    Help with purchase of Shop Vac

    I currently use a Makita ROS without any vac attached. I now want to buy a vac just for this and am considering the Fein or the Festool (leaning toward the Fein due to $$). Any advice on which model, filters etc to make the right purchase would be appreciated.

    My new Vac sucks!

    Hee, hee...no really...it sucks things up real nice! I got it Friday evening after my little 6 gallon Shop-Vac died. It's a Rigid 16 Gallon Wet/Dry Vac/ WD1851. I love this thing. No, I haven't replaced my table saw yet. (Probably won't for a long time!)

    Old Canister Shop vac's

    Probably most of you have figured out that the bottom half of an old shop vac that no longer works makes a great trash can. Especially if it is metal and has casters on the bottom. I have several in my shop, and I like the fact that they are fire proof and I can roll it up close to where I am...

    Shop Vac Accessories

    I'm looking to get some attachments and tubes for a home built dust collection system type thing. I wanted mostly just to provide some dust collection for my miter saw, planar, joiner and router. Anyone know where they may have some of this stuff for sale? Thanks!

    Shop Vac feedback

    While completing our last project my 2-3 year old Lowes shop vac bit the dust! :roll: It developed a "burning" smell and started making non-normal noises. I've still got to dig through my receipts to see exactly when I got it since it supposedly has a 3 year warranty, but in the interim I've...

    Fein vac as good as Festool?

    I need to spend ~$250 dollars at WWS within the next two weeks. Due to changes with their credit card I need to exhaust my Rewards AND they upped the reward points 150% :eusa_danc One item I'm seriously considering is the Fein 9-11-55 6 Gallon Turbo I shop vac. A number of folks have posted...

    Pay It Forward, Wet/Dry Vac

    3.5 HP, 8 gal, red stripe filter. I think I even have the instruction manual still around. Good for getting up water, shavings, etc. Not so good for getting up dust.

    Vac Gloat

    I appreciate the feedback in my post on ideas for a new vac. And the winner is..(drum roll, maestro)...... I was leaning toward the Ridgid, but Consumer Reports gave this vac higher points (by only one point). Is is quieter than the old one, with or without the muffler attached. It came...

    Your Ideas For Replacing Shop Vac?

    OK, it is the Craftsman 3HP, 8 Gal, Wet/Dry Vac (red stripe filter). It is over 10 yrs old. Still works, but blows air out at the handles (a design flaw for controlling dust). So I am thinking of something that will be less of a dust pump. The contenders for purchase are the Ridgid Pro...

    Joniter to shop vac dust collection

    Want to connect my 6" Delta Professional jointer to my Craftsman 16 gallon shop vac. Went to the BORG and to a plumbing supply house and could not find anything that would work. Looked in my industrial WWS catalog and could not find anything. Surely I am not the first to try and do this. The...
