Re: [MBZ] Heck of a Deal
Were whitewalls and chrome bundts OE in 1984? The whitewalls look really dated and the chrome looks gaudy. Maybe it's just me.

The little one. I have had it for at least 10 years. It has seen a lot of use without issue. They didnt even make the big one when I bought it. I will post a link when we get out of Joshua Tree.

Fein. It may cost three times as much, but I can still hear myself think, it sucks well and it has lasted a very long while now. No going back. Separate fan for cooling the motor. Accessory outlet for dust collecting plug in eg random orbital; turns the vac on when you turn the sander on. And off again a few seconds after you switch the sander off.

Re: [MBZ] Heck of a deal on a shop vac
I bought a 12 gal (or so) Shop Vac brand 10-15 years ago that worked OK until the motor died three years ago. I bought a new with the removable motor that converts into a blower (handy for cleaning the hangar floor) and converted the canister part of the old vac into a pre-chamber for the new vac. Now I have twice the capacity at the cost of two canisters and hoses to move around. It really helps when being used as the dust/chip collector for the planer or jointer.

[MBZ] Heck of a deal on a shop vac
I was in the market for a shop vac and was at the local farm store today. It appears they carry Craftsman brand. In the back of the store on the top shelf they had a lone 12 gallon Shop Vac brand and it had a sign and sticker on it for $49.99. The craftsman they had in the store that were 12 gal were all over $100. Checking Walmart website the ones they had that were 12 gal were all $75 and up. So this was a good deal. I figured they used to sell these and this one was leftover or something when they started carrying craftsman. I pulled it down and stuck it in my cart. I bought some other things such as bags of insect killer granules for the yard. When I went to check out my total was only $64. That did not seek right but OK.
