My wife can detect 10ths...

Then she really won't like a metric thermostat.

She has yet to meet a thermostat she likes.

I noticed that Sears offers a "foam" sleeve that
fits over the regular filter.

Have you tried that ?

They also sell the paper bags for the various models...

I assume this is the "drywall bag" everybody is referring to ?

The beauty of the drywall bag is that the dust cake seems to fall off in
between uses. I like the Cleanstream as a main filter, but the bag is
a great pre-filter.

I haven't tried the foam filter but I have cut off one of the legs of a
pair of my wife's old panty hose and stretched it over the filter. It
helps and it didn't cost anything.

I think that's for wet vac'ing.

Got that, too! G

Shavings stick to it.

For sander dust collection, nuttin' works as well as the bags.

One of very many examples of the metric/celsius system being
less well tuned to the human body and human experience than
imperial/farenheit.

For sure.... Unfortunately, metric controls are what we get in Mexico..

Some nights during the summer, 30 isn't getting the job done and 29 is a little
chilly... I'd really prefer F over C for AC..

Mine definitely doesn't..
Between being cold and having "power surges" where she burning up, some nights
get really interesting..

I think the thermostat upstairs is in a cold spot, since I had to adjust it
to 59F to get the temp in the bedroom to 22C ...

The solution to that, I would think, is to smuggle in a non-metric
thermostat.

Or use an analog thermostat.

We can't, as far as I know..
The unit (mini-split) is on the wall and the only control is the remote for it..
I asked Trane if the remote and/or the AC unit could be programmed for
Fahrenheit, they said not possible..

Well, we've sort of had to reprogram, especially my wife.. The oven is in C
also, so she has to do the math for most of her baking..
Now, if they'd stop moving the Peso around, I could figure out how much we spend
on utilities and stuff..lol
