Anyone panic buying....

I probably was invited to those parties and I probably went as well.

I don't recognise you from the photos, were you one of those with a mask on?

I've worked on dimension saws with smaller extractors than that.

well our house is bigger than the dimension saw you were using!
my school has a extractor that is as tall as a low bungalow and several feet square..... given it serves almost a dozen machines throughout the whole building

Argos offer brochure in this mornings paper has Dyson's on offer but they still want £200 for the least expensive, a DC33!

We won't have another as we've had problems with every one we've had TBH

Overrated plastic rubbish. They're the vacuum equivalent of a hipster fixie IMO

all domestic vacuum cleaners are plastic, you want one like i posted

Cheers Ed

That's only a small one then, I once worked at a place that had a large 5-side planer/moulder and 3 dual table CNC overhead routers (full sheet) that ran 24hrs a day the cyclonic extractor sat on 4 upright girders with room to drive a skip lorry underneath it (to remove the full skips of wood chips/MDF dust 3 times a day)
Strangely James Dyson based his vacuum cleaner on a miniaturised version of the extractor at his factory.

My daughter invested in a Dyson!
Although it was quite expensive she said it was money well spent; it hovers ALL surfaces equally.

A hover vacuum, haven't seen one of those yet, but I'm sure it will catch on like the mowers.

We had one too.

Hoover made a hover cleaner called the Constellation. I reckon they received a batch of badges with a missing letter 'o' and not missing an opportunity to minimise waste invented the Hoover hover hoover.

Yes , I remember those now. How uncomplicated things were then.

I think this legislation is just another of the pointless EU directives which does nothing except keep a load of highly paid plebs in work.

I wouldn't know my domestic tasks were confined to things that didn't involve making things cleaner.

Banning Vax products is an excellent idea.
