In an earlier thread I mentioned using filter bags to capture the bulk of the sawdust, and small filter bags which go over your shop vac's existing filter to remove the finer particles which normally go through the motor causing damage and being exhausted all over your shop. Use of these filters is SOP for optical companies. You will notice a visible difference when using them.
Bags are available to fit most shop vacs.
A package of 10 large bags and 10 small filter bags is $23.95.
A package of 20 of the small filter bags is $6.00.
Shipping charges are additional. Compare your local pricing and I think you will agree this company is a great deal. I have placed many orders and have always been happy with the prompt friendly service from Bill and Wanda.

I missed the questions here when they were posted. I just got off the phone with Wanda and they still have the full line available. When you call you will want to have the model number and size of your shop vac handy. If you have any doubt as to how well these bags work let me tell you the main customers are eye glass lab's. The ultra fine plastic dust generated while making eye glass lenses to a prescription is a terror on vacuum motors. The two bag system captures this dust and eliminates the damage. The much larger dust and chips from woodworking are no problem at all for these bags. It is also much nicer to lift out a blue bag and replace it rather than dumping a dust filled vac.

No web site or email as far as I know. Call the 800 number and have your model number and size ready. They stock a variety of bags and can answer your questions.
