These are various parts you can use to complete a restoration to multiple vintage Hoover vacuum cleaners! I've included the SketchUp files as well as the .stls in case you'd like to modify any of the models to better fit your vacuum. These designs have been confirmed to work with the following models: - 28 (unsure about the wheels, someone will have to confirm that) - 450 - 541 - 543 - 700 - 725 - 825 I'm sure there are several other model vacuum cleaners that these parts will work with, but it's impossible for me to know of all of them! If you know of one that these will work with, feel free to comment or message me, and I'll add it to the list so others can find this easier! Parts included with this pack: - Large wheels - Small wheels - Solid wheels - Wheels with a rubber perimeter - Bag rings - Standard bag rings - Disposable bag conversion built into the bag ring - Disposable bag conversions - These get slipped between the bag ring and vacuum, and allow a disposable bag to be installed under the original shake-out bag. Anyway, some more details: Most of the models should be fairly straight-forward to print. I'll outline the exceptions here: - Large/small wheel grips: Use semiflex or flexible filament. - The disposable bag adapter is a three-part product, two of which are printed. - For every "disp bag adapter" printed, you'll need an accompanying "disp bag adapter tube", unless you already have a tube that will work, then you can skip the printable tube. - I use a Kirby vacuum cleaner flexible fill tube cut into three equal sections to create three complete units. - A picture of the finished product is in the pictures. I used zip ties and RTV to hold everything together and create a nice seal. Happy vacuuming!
