I got together with Ken Hedrick & Toby Glenn today for our first official mini meet. It was lots of fun, we talked about all different types of vacs & vac memories as well as tried out a few vintage pieces. We spent a good 3 hours in the vac warehouse just looking around too lol. I took my 516 and Ken brought a Electrolux canister for "show & tell" lol. I also left with 2 very nice vintage pieces: a gold Eureka upright & a Eureka Roto-Matic. So yes, I would I had fun today.

Mini Meet in Atlanta/Jefferson

Thanks for posting this Austin! A very special thank you to Toby for both his hospitality and his generosity. We are lucky to have Toby and his wealth of knowledge to enjoy and learn from! And especially his extensive collection to enjoy! We are looking to meet and get to know our fellow collectors in the surrounding area. Reach out, say hello and lets get together again soon! Ken

Hi All! Yes! We had loads of fun at our first little Mini-Meet today. I hope there are many more in the future. Austin, you'll have to give me a progress report when you get your new toys cleaned up and ready, and I'll do the same when I get the Floor A Matic some brushes and cleaned up. It was a real pleasure to meet you and don't be a stranger now, hear. Toby G.
