Hopefully we'll still be able to buy bags that fit.  I'm a big fan of 
using drywall bags in my shop-vac.  They do a great job of catching dust 
before it can clog the HEPA filter.

I recently tried a dust deputy in line with my shop vac.  I have been
amazed at how well it works.  It stops about 90% of the dust and
particulate before it even gets into the vac.  I used to have to replace my
filters every couple months.  Have been using the same filter now for six
months and it still looks like new.  I bought the deluxe kit that comes
with casters and is supposed to bolt on to the side of the shop vac, but I
didn't like how they had that set up, so I made a cart to stack the dust
deputy on top of it.  Overall I am very happy and I plan to buy another one
to use with my other shop vac in the basement.

When I read the article, it appeared to me that this shutdown is just of
their manufacturing facilities in Williamsport, PA, not Shop-Vac as a
whole. They have manufacturing facilities in Binghamton, NY as well as
China.

This article
<https://www.northcentralpa.com/business/shop-vac-is-closing-hundreds-of-employees-to-lose-jobs/article_22df06ee-f77a-11ea-b643-0bc122c9e71c.html>
seems to indicate that it is Shop-Vac as a whole, which I'd find quite
surprising, given the ubiquity of their products! Then again, it is hard
for manufacturing companies to manufacture when the Pennsylvania government
prevents employees from working....
