[Shop-talk] Shop Vacs

[Jimmie Mayfield]

I won't recomend a particular brand since I've only personally used a couple
vacs but I'll mention two things:

1) Get a vac that has a 2.5" diameter hose or larger

2) Don't underestimate the amount of space it'll take in the garage.  I have
   a 12-gal vac and while I'm satisfied with it, it's annoying bulky when it's
   not being used (especially since I'm trying to figure out how to squeeze
   a jointer into my garage).
