Hi Everyone,
New guy on the block from the Milwaukee area. If you have a minute, please take a look at my profile for insight into my background. While my fascination with vacuums has been long term, my "coming out of the vacuum closet" is very recent. I owe a big thank you to Fred Stachnik. Fred, you are the best. Recently, I had the privlege of helping Fred box up his collection in preparation for his move to Duram, NC. I learned so much it was unbelievable. Fred, you are an incredible storehouse of knowledge and insight. Thank you!!
I was also introduced to Jeff Parker and Tania Voigt. More great people. Plans are underway to get together with them. I sincerely look forward to becoming a part of the banter about machines and hope to meet many of you sometime at convention or possibly a mini meet. I won't be able to attend convention this year because of other commitments with my day job but maybe next year. In the meantime, lets talk vacuums. Thanks!!

Hiya Pat~

 Glad you finally made it to the website!

:)

I look forward to talking soon!
And I should be the one thanking you (and Jeff, and Tania)!!! Boxing EVERYTHING up and moving it was no easy task. I'll be unpacking for weeks!

Hey Fred,

Great talking with you through this site. Alot of anticipation of being here as a fellow banterererere. Great fun connecting with the group. I'm staging the "63 Rebuild" I think this one might go down in history. (chuckle) Should be great fun.

One thought, consider sharing the rebuilding phases of your collection display. Love your photo summaries. Sure would be fun since I'm not able to help you put it back together. What fun for you. You have sooo much to work with.

Talk with you soon.

Welcome Pat!

This is a great group. I am sure that you will have a lot of fun here. If I can help you with anything Hoover, let me know. You are in good hands with Fred and Jeff...two Hoover Gurus for sure!
