So I heard somewhere perhaps here some one made a monster vacuum or a frankinvac I believe its been called which got me thinking. Of combos and names. See if you can guess the two or more machine combinatons or come up with new ones So far i've came up with designs for. King kirby, devils queen bis, eurolux, rain white and blue, dyorby, hoosel, riccan, reliboss, senomega, sedorf, conmirrage,

I've actually seen a "Royal King" setup - a Silver King with a Royal 880 hooked up as a power nozzle. Worked like a charm :)

I hooked my kirby up to my central vacuum.

Kirby + Pig

I saw somewhere else on this forum where someone connected their Kirby up to their NSS M1 PIG. Now that sounds like one hell of a monster to me. I sure would like to see a picture of that set up.

It works well! All the power of a kirby with no bags to deal with, and all the dust gets sucked out of your house!

It ain't pretty....

But it's performance is amazing. I used a 2" shop vac hose a kirby fill tube to attach the hose to the kirby and some tape I've actually collected the sand i've drawn out with it in a bucket just to see how much i can get out of these carpets.

I have connected my G6 and Broan cv40-b in the past which also worked pretty well but i think the NSS and Kirby perform better

Edit:

I've also connected a rainbow D3 to my Kirby G6 it didn't work all that well if i recall a lot of leakage around the connections

I tried connecting my NSS to my sanitaire that was not a good set up either it causes the sanitaire to bog down way too much and caused the belt to slip

sptyks:I rigged my Kirby Sentria One or Two the same manner as KirbyKid connected his G4 to the central vacuum hose.Blackhearts idea looks excellent-you can maintain the high airflow of both the Kirby and the NSS thru the 2" Shop Vac type hoses.Another idea I would like to try-Remove the disposable bag from the Kirby and try connecting the NSS hose to the Kirby bag fill tube bag connector.Just thought of this-haven't yet tried it-will have to try it when I get home.I think the idea I just mentioned would be good for someone like me who doesn't have a 2" Shop Vac hose.The large bore Kirby fill tube would maintian the airflow better than the Kirby attachment hose.The Kirby hose is simplest for me-just connect the hose attachment cuff on the NSS over the Kirby hoes attachment cuff.Fits well!

Blackheart,
Thank you for posting the photo of your Kirby-Pig setup. Someday if I can ever acquire a Pig, I will try your setup.

Tolivac,
The connecting the NSS hose to the Kirby bag fill tube bag connector also sounds pretty good.

Here is my monster vac

It consists of 2 model 700FQ, connected through central vac piping, an Electrolux hose and "L" shaped PN
It works very well.
The suction and airflow is tremendous and the PN is a good cleaner.
I used this set up at the VCCC convention a few years back and kicked but!

I tried the NSS hose to the Kirby bag fill tube-doesn't work directly-will have to think of some way to adapt without altering the Kirby bag or the NSS hose.I have some Kirby fill tubes lying around-may see if I can do something with that.
