interesting use of DC
today I removed the bags off the DC, pulled the DC up the stairs, put on
the old 30 micron bags and a hose and sucked leaves up. Then I found out I had to remove the thein internal baffle... But overall, it did a pretty good job of mulching the leaves. Not great, but a pretty good reduction. I was a pain to keep emptying the bags, but next time I might use a plastic back on the bottom and see how it goes. I think I got a 3 to 1 reduction, maybe more. -- Jeff |

Wouldn't it be easier to just rake them into your neighbor's yard and set them on fire? ;-) -- Kevin Miller Juneau, Alaska http://www.alaska.net/~atftb "In the history of the world, no one has ever washed a rented car." - Lawrence Summers |

They never rake their leaves, so most of what I get is their leaves... But that wouldn't be real neighborly of me... :-p -- Jeff |
