FESTOOL Midi Vac Bags (the new ones)

[paul_david_thomas]

I've just bought some new bags for my midi (or is a mini, I can never remember)...

Well, the bags are lot thicker - made of tuff stuff some would say...

Normally, I would expect a slight rip in the bag (blow out) on the old paper bags. These... Great stuff..

I must confess... After filling 3 bags in one afternoon - ripping firrings for a roof amongst other things, I took each bag out to my bin and used my finger to extract all the crap inside them (whilst no breathing) and now... Three new bags !!!

Yes, I know as tights as a scotts man... But I just could not stop myself.

I have the new bags too but I still have a few remaining paper bags left to use up.  The paper bag in my Mini now is about half full and the suction is way down.  My experience with the self cleaning bags with the CT26 is that there is no perceivable loss of suction, even with a full bag.

I haven't used the new bags yet, so I was wondering ..... I always put one spare bag in the small compartment on the back of the Mini, do the new bags fit in there as well?

That's a good question Alex, I'll check and let you know.

The new bags will fit in the compartment. I just replaced a half full paper bag with the new fleece bags to test a home made cyclone.
