I was at the woodworking show in Las Vegas last week, looking for cyclones,
among other things. My ceiling is only 91", so I have some problems.

Grizzly had 2 and 3 hp cyclones next to each other. They were both listed
as 93.5", though the 3 was obviously 10" higher than the 2. I asked the
salesman to explain it. He agreed there was an error of some sort, but
didn't know what, nor did Grizzly have a tape measure.
Today I asked their customer service about it. They tell me I am mistaken;
they are both 93.5".

And, the saleman told me it was easy enough to cut 2" off the hose that
connects to the waste bin, CS says that is will make emptying the waste bin
impossible.

Guess I won't be buying a Grizzly. Just venting.


I went to the doctor (nothing serious) the other day. An assistant
always checks blood pressure, weight, etc. When it came to height, she
announced that I was 5' 8 1/2". Now I have been 5' 11 1/2" for years
which I politely informed the assistant. She pointed out the numbers
and insisted that the machine didn't lie. Another fellow said he had
also lost 3" in one day.

Well, when I got home, I put a try square against the wall, stood under
it, made a pencil mark on the wall, and measured. I had gained 3" in a
couple hours. I have written to Ripley's Believe it or Jam It but I
haven't heard back yet.
