Dan,

I forgot one thing about the bags; you don't HAVE to use paper bags, as
it comes with a fabric bag. I don't like using it, as it is not
recommended for use with a 1 micron filter, because the fabric bag
reduces the suction so much. I found that to be true by trying it, just
for the heck of it. Fein's recommendations should be followed. and it's
messy as hell to empty! g

Has anyone ever used a shop vacuum called "Shop Pro". This shop
vacuum is sold here in Canada as an alternative to Shop Vac. I tried
searching this group and nothing came up. I will be replacing my shop
vac soon, judging by the sound of the motor. It has been replaced
once and I will not replace a second. I will not buy shop vac again
if it can be avoided.

I'm trying to find out if vacuums from Shop Pro are any good or better
than Shop Vac. Another important detail will be the noise level. My
shop vac sounds like I'm testing jet engines for Boeing. Thanks in
advance for your help.

Desperately looking for good saw dust sucking device !
