Had these ideas floating around in my head.

I've really taken a liking to the Bissell Velocity bagged vacuum. I think its kind of cool that it's a bagless Bissell converted to use bags. I've also taken a liking to the Powerglide Platnium, mainly for the fact that it's a bagged Bissell with all the bells and whistles of a bagless Bissell. However, both of these machines are uncommon nowadays, so I've had this idea to bascially make my own versions of these onto bog-standard Bissells.

The first idea of mine is to take a Bissell Velocity bag tank and top "cyclone" and fit them onto another machine that normally uses the Easy Empty dirt container. It'd certainly make maintaining them a lot easier.

The second idea is to take a Bissell Clean view handle with a turbo brush slot in it and fit it to a Bagged Bissell Powerforce, or other Bagged Bissell that uses the Cleanview handle. I wish Bissell would've made a mid-range bagged upright that had a turbo brush back in the day, but I digress.

If was feeling *extra* creative, I could maybe even spray paint the parts to match the colors of whatever machine I was putting them on (for example, if I put a cleanview turbo handle on a bagged Big Green Powerforce, I could spray paint it green, and give it a yellow turbo brush.

Do these sound feasible? What are your thoughts on these?
