Shop vacuums are those that can be used to clean mishaps that are wet or dry and are meant to clean up large, heavy debris. These vacuums are perfect for heavy duty messes in garages or workshop environments with large machinery. They’re also great for sucking up pieces or parts that fall into those out-of-the-way spots. After your vacuum sucks the item up, you can simply pop off the lid and retrieve it!

By using a tapered adaptor and flexible tubing, it is possible to connect one end of the hose to the dust port of a power hand tool and the other end to the nozzle on a shop vacuum, thereby creating a safe and secure miniature central dust collection system!
