Thanks for the information on the Festool vs Fein vacuums. At some point in time I will probably upgrade, but for now I need to make due with my vac. I have a Rigid 16 gallon vac, but it has a rather short inflexible hose. Are there other hoses that I can attach that are a little longer and maybe a little more flexible that I can hook up to it to hook to hand tools such as my Domino and Track saw and a sander, etc? Reasonable price would be nice also.
