I’M SICK OF TEARING BAGS WITH THE METAL BANDS THAT CAME STANDARD WITH MY DUST COLLECTOR, BAGS AREN’T CHEAP AND THOSE METAL BANDS CAN REALLY DIG IN, I BOUGHT SOME EASILY ADJUSTABLE WEBBING BANDS ON EBAY AND NOTIVE THAT SOME MORE ARE FOR SALE, CHECK THEM OUT FOR YOURSELF, THEY’RE FANTASTIC. aNOTHER TIP, I HOLD THE NEW BAG IN PLACE WITH 3 OR 4 BITS OF TAPE, BEFORE FITTING THE STRAP, SAVES NEEDING AN EXTRA PAIR OF HANDS! CUT AND PASTE THIS ADDRESS INTO YOUR ADDRESS BAR TO SEE THE STRAPS. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1262047040&r=0&t=0&showTutorial=0&ed=997612394&indexURL=0&rd=1

hey Richard are you the guy selling those thing on e-bay. i got got a feeling that your using this site for a swap meet
*Hey Richard,We use clothes pins to hold the bags tight while we put the !#@#@! bands on the bags. It works well.Ben
*I just kinda roll a coupla handfuls of bag all around the steel band - saves tape and time. It's easier to do than it is to explain.I tried webbing straps and couldn't get enough tension to hold the bag on
*2 or 3 magnets work well to hold the bag in place while you place the band around the bag.
*BUILD A WOODEN BOX AND ATTATCH IT TO THE BOTTOM OF YOUR COLLECTOR. WHEN IT GETS FULL JUST EMPTY THE BOX TRHOUGH A REMOVABLE PANEL SO YOU NO LONGER HAVE TO REMOVE THE BAG TO EMPTY IT. CUT UFF THE BOTTOM END OF THE BAG AND SEALIT TO THE BOX THEREBY TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE POROUSNESS OF THE W/O FILLING IT UP
