Purchase options for vacuum hose mod

[bugzboy]

I am thinking about getting a small spool to save on the various costs and share them here.  I can get 10ft of the neon green PET sleeve (1.5" nominal - would fit 1-1/4" to 2" hose) and 6" of heat shrink tubing (3" diameter, 2:1) for $16 shipped in the US.  I figure that would be enough to eliminate snag on the hose. A 14 ft option would be around $22.

Any interest?

Hi, I am interested. Thanks.

Thanks, everyone. I've placed the order for the parts. I ended up getting both 2" and 3" heat shrink tubes. The 3" diameter tube works well with 36mm (and 1.5") ID hoses. For the smaller 1.25" (and 27mm) ID hoses, the 2" tube is better.

Please PM me with your firm order (quantity, hose size). I prefer Paypal when I'm ready to mail them later this week.  Hopefully I'll have enough for everyone. Otherwise, it is on a first-come-first-serve basis.

As of this morning, I have about 4-5 slots left. I've replied to all PM with firm order confirmation and necessary info.

Received the spool last night

and did my initial test install. All it took was about 10 min. The hardest part is to keep the power cord from not retracting.

With my daughter help we managed to packaged most orders for shipping

Thank to the original "inventor" of this mod and everyone who ordered.

Hooray!

Can't wait for mine to arrive!

Thank you again for thinking to do this group order!

We do well will the Gorilla Sleeve product, but I never saw the end done with the shrink tubing. Great idea. We also like to have misbehaving employees put their arms into either end and try to get out of the giant "chinese handcuffs"
