    Vac's 1 2 3

    I can say I have taken apart more vacuums then I can count . Some times I use a screw driver and some times a nice 4LB mallet, each tool reveals a truth
    truth #1 Old metal vac's you gotta use a screw driver truth #2 some plastic vac's might also be a good choice to avoid plastic shrapnel . Most case plastic shrapnel is a real danger . but some times if you have to many vac's just use the 4LB
    There has been a vac that I some times just say, it's not really worth the time. The old metal Electrolux If you did take the time, nice motor some AL, but man they were put together . A old Kirby is at least workable. The old metal Electrolux might as well bring out the bomb squad.
    I just found a made in the USA Electrolux in the stile of the old metal one. Same look just plastic . OK I was ready for Battle, pulled out the 4LB 1 2 3erd hit opened like a walnut . Built like C**P
    truth #3 That's progress for you.
