Have an old Hitachi vacuum cleaner that I would like to now use
around the workshop. But after having had a bagless one for a
while, I'm now reluctant to fork out £1.50 or so everytime for
replacement paper bags.

Usually, the original bags are glued at the bottom. I peeled a bag
open, trimmed off the end and re-folded. I then used a long plastic
paper clamp to keep it sealed when in use.

You could also use a couple of bulldog clips or similar.

Now you can just empty the bag when the need arises and don't have to
worry about restricted air flow / cooling etc.

Until the bags clog up.
