    Junk stores, Bill. Find an old Oreck upright. If you were closer, I 'd give you one of mine. Those things are bullet proof. I have 3 of them, the last one I got at a garage sale for $10.

    Tempting to drive down there and buy you a beer.
    This Eureka I have was bought as a rebuilt by my ex in 1986 from a vacuum shop. For at least 10 years after it was purchased it smelled of highly perfumed carpet "cleaner" when it was running. I want to put my own stink into a new one. Will have to look up Oreck for a newbie price.

    Any time, brother Bill. The Tomato is about 10 hours from you.
