Adapter for CT Mini

[chris s]

Hello All;
    One of my most used festools is the CT Mini, From dust collection on the tools to just cleaning up. My Wife has a brand name vac for the carpets and other floors. I have noticed for a while that one of the attachments has gravitated to my area..Namely an air powered small step attachment. Needless to say I latched onto it.
    I had to alter one of my pickup tubes. I cut it down to the point where it just started on the vacuum head, then held the tube end in a pan of boiling water to soften. After 2 to 4 min. in the water I ramed it home on the vacuum head.
  I tell you this thing is awesome. I did the stairs in our house,no problem,then did my truck. This thing is totally awesome.
  Please see the attached picture.
  I am not to be held responsible if these vacuum heads start disappearing worldwide.

                                                                                                      Chris

I have said for a while that if festool made a powerhead for their vacuums that many would be stolen by the housekeeper in the family. I always hate when an in-house project is completed and my ct has to go back to the garage. While it is inside I do all the vacuuming with it (hard floors). I am on the lookout for a powerhead from a used vac (rainbow or such) to keep in the house.  CT's are a lot cheaper than kirbys.  Festool would just need a salesman to do in-house demos!

Also have one of those. Ill have to give it a try one of these days...

Funny that vacuum attachment shows up on the FOG this week. I dodged a major bullet this week with my dyson dying and my midi almost becoming my house vac till further notice. Ended up just being the cord an easy fix but i was worried for a minute. I have bern more thinking of adding another CT to the stable than taking one away

I've used the turbo brush from my wifes miele vac (with permission of course) for various cleanup tasks it slips right on a 27mm hose
