I just got this Vacuette Electric today. I won it in that big vacuum auction that took place during the past month or so. According to the auction company, it didn’t turn on when they initially tried to test it. So I’ll have to figure out what it needs. Anyway, here it is!

Ben:
Thank you! Hopefully it’s an easy fix and won’t be too hard to do. It’ll be a fun project either way. Tom: I can agree with that. I remember seeing yours and trying it out. Yours is more like a C and mine is more like an R. Very interesting indeed. Thank you! I can’t wait to get it working. Billy: You’re good. There really wasn’t much bidding at all actually. I was the first bidder. Then within the last day of the auction, it was bid up a few times. But I then put down one last bid towards the end, and ended up winning. Very happy I won! Thank you! |

I was one of the bidders. It was 16 bids so probably 7 or 8 people bid and he bid the highest. I bid up to $200 and I tapped out.
I was hoping nobody was watching and I'd snag it but there's maybe 2 or 3 through vacuum collectors. Pop the cord off put on a newer kirby cord and the the axle. Congratulations. |
