Okay, so its probably a given that most of us have a shop-vac or two, right?
And these things aren't built to the standards they might be?
I for one am too cheap to just toss one when something trivial breaks, I try to find a cheap way to patch it together. Even if it is just long enough so that the whole thing goes in a glorious ball of fire....
So, with that in mind, I present my tight-wad repair job to one of my shop-vacs, which lost two wheels in an unfortunate cement patio joint incident. $8 worth of fiberglass reinforced bondo and some drywall screws later, we're back in the suckin' sweepin' action!
Come on, post your innovative solutions, I know there have to be some out there.
