    Need Good Hose For Cheapo Vac???

    OK. I bought a Shop Vac mini 2.5hp vac that sucks pretty darn good. The only problem I find is that it has one of those cheap hoses on it. The hose fits into a 1 1/4" input in the vac, so my other vac hoses won't fit. Anyone have experience with this and could give some suggestions for a decent hose?

    Is that for a mini Shop Vac? It's got a 1 1/4" inlet on the vac.

    Mr. Nozzle makes 1.25" hose, don't know a source off hand though, good quality hose for not huge money.
    Of all the laws Brandolini's may be the most universally true.

    Deep thought for the day:

    Your bandsaw weighs more when you leave the spring compressed instead of relieving the tension.
