I am so tickled

[FBCS]

I purchased a Craftsman wet vac for myself to clean my pond. I never thought
the purchase of a wet vac would give me this much pleasure. I told my
husband it was mine (early Christmas present) hands off. Joann

This model you can attach a hose to it so you don't have to keep emptying
the container, it drains to gardens or where ever. I'm tickled!

Model number, please, ma'am? (I know I could actually go find a Sears
store, but what's the fun in that???

Seriously, water is heavy stuff, and not having to empty the thing would be
a big plus! (I think I may have been the one who originally posted about
"his & hers" wet vacs, or "one for wet & one for dry" vac -- a concept
that should not be overlooked, IMHO!)

Congrats!! I love my craftsman too!! Reminds me, must get out there to
net out the early leaves, and put screens on pond. And vac some before
it gets too much colder.

Here's some info on my Craftsman wet-dry vac from my August 27, 2003
post. Happy ponding!

We bought a Craftsman 16 gallon wet/dry vacuum last fall (Model No.
338.17923). It has the built-in pump and sounds similar to RTB's
Shop-Vac (might even be the same machine as Craftsman often relabels
appliances made by other companies).

We just attach a garden hose to the pump output and pump the pond water
and muck to garden and flower beds. I made a mesh "bag" (actually the
mesh liner from old running pants with drawstring waist and ankles) and
attach it to the input inside the vacuum body; it keeps the water filter
attachment from clogging too quickly. It catches leaves, rocks, twigs,
dragonfly nymphs and other insects / larvae, then I dump that into a
mesh pond basket near the pond so that the insects can get back to the
pond.

Wow really, where can I get one!

Anne, Zookeeper has the info on the model within post. I had read the post
from zookeeper and RichToyBox earlier this year.

Sears, Craftsman brand zookeeper has posted the model. It is really cool,
the only one that pumps out. The salesman thought I was nuts when I said I
need to clean my pond before it got too cold. Better yet Sears has 10% off
everything in the store (most things). Joann
