Greg, the hose from my old Shopvac, which fitted my Incra Wonderfence, fits like a glove inside the big inlet of the Taurus.
Cleaned up the shed last night and this thing is just so much better than the Shopvac 18 I had that I am glad I didn't buy a new filter for it.
Still haven't got any bags, went out this morning and clean forgot to go to the Big B (Craft disease!)

Indeed a great result. Although I was a little skeptical at first (only because to get a similar result - albeit no minute particles in the air - the festool vac cost $900) this does seem that you guys did get a very good buy. It seems even better than my old WAP (German made - not available in OZ) vac that also cost an arm and a leg many years ago.

Have sent an email to harpsoak on ebay, does anyone know if this deal is still on? The Ebay page says sale over.
Also, do any of you resourceful fellows (and ladies) know where you can get adaptors from vacuum hose to tools?
To me it seems you'd want to cut all the smaller sizes off if your using something with a bigger hole so you don't have the restriction.
Which of course means you can't use your smaller tools.
Ben.
It appears that many and varied are the slippery slopes in this hobby, Orange stuff, hand tools, dust extraction/cyclones, power tools, tools of any description, work benches, sharpening, etc.

The one from Aldi and/or harpsoak-ebay, comes with a multi step adapter that fits most of the power tools I have, except my Ryobi sanders. Got a vacuum fitting from the local tip recycle shop that did the job.
As far as I remember, harpsoak was selling the adapters separately, maybe drop him a line?

Hi
Just to let you know that the guy selling the dust extraction extraction unit has listed some recon units for $65 plus postage...this has got to be a bargain! I got one and it looked brand new.
Check out this item

Hi
Just letting you know that Aldi is stocking this vac from 21st of May. Thanks everyone for the valuable information. I was looking for a vac for my little garage/workshop, and this seems to be the perfect one.
