Checked out VAC-36... outta my league pricey... I'll check again at Sears for the HEPA... Last time I checked there, the sales guy said they didn't have them. Thanks, Tony.

Great image in my mind of the sucking monster, Mike... Lighting tips appreciated too, I'll have to try some of the methods you guys have used.

Barbara,
If you have a real Shop Vac, you can buy the Clean Stream HEPA filters from them directly at

Barb,
I was looking at Harbor Freight's Blasting cabinets, compressors, etc. What model do you have and what size compressor are you using? I'm just beginning and am learning lots just observing the bulletin responses.
Thanks in advance.

Barbra,
I forgot to mention that I've used some duct tape on the 'draft' hole - taped off half of it - seems to create better suction that way. - Nickie

Hi Linda... Don't remember the number etc. offhand. But it's the big red one that is often on sale for $199. It's an older compressor , Sears Craftsman, that I bought off a guy in my old studio. It works fine, but it's dreadfully noisy. Let me know if you want more specific info.
And you're right about this board. I've learned -- continue to learn-- huge amounts from many of our fellow warmglass.commies.
Best, Barbara
