Industrial vacuum cleaner
 

My first foray into Ebay.... I thought it would be useful to have a good
powerful vac for the shop and workshop. Saw one on Ebay and it cost me a
tenner (plus carriage). I should have known when they charged me £60 to
bring it down on their own van!

Enjoy: http:www.classic.vispa.com/vac/data1.jpg

Anyone make use of it? It would make a good mini submarine perhaps.


I also bought some power tools with non standard mains connectors, so the
next job is to source those, or rewire!

That's fairly amusing! Dare I ask - does it work?

Apparently so, but I haven't had the time to look at it yet.

It certainly looks as though it should have plenty of power.

I also bought some power tools with non standard mains connectors, so the

I am sure they are to a standard that exists somewhere. A picture will
probably get them identified.

Uh Oh...

Lesson 1: If no carriage is quoted ask *before* you bid.

I should have known when they charged me =A360 to bring it down on
their own van!


Ouch, still it wouldn't have been cheap to send by carrier.

Quite a beast looks like it will have some serious suck with both
motors going. Always assuming the thing works, what was the eBay item
number?

How do you mean? Piccies paint a thousand words. B-)
