Just picked up 3 of these @ HD, I think they're $60 full price. Hurry in and get some before they're gone!

3.5hp is just not enough for a primary shop vac. That is unless is is real horsepower, which I coubt. I have a little 2 gal which has a small motor, but I just use that for small jobs where I need a portable vac.

I doubt if that's his primary since he bought 3 of them. I use a 3.5 HP on my router table and Radial arm saw, and another as a floor vac or for the Random Orbital Sander. Can't have too many shop vacs....when they get clogged just switch 'em out, empty 'em later. bill

Got an extra 2 more since they were so power full, as of now I have one hooked up to the BS and one to the miter saw.

So I have 6 shop vacs now :) It costs like $15 for a filter... why not just buy a shop vac

Btw, they are powerful.... I was surprised!
