I could try, but it sounds like I probably shouldn't be vacuuming that
much "long" stuff. And I think the Fein works well because it's
pretty high velocity -- I'm afraid it wouldn't work well with over
twice the hose. If I really find I need it, I might try that, or get
a 2nd vac. I have an old Craftsman out in the garage, but it sounds
like a jet plane. One of the things I love about the Fein is how
quiet it is.

p.s. There's no way I'll try and run my lathe on its end. I'd have
to go back and watch all those youtube videos with my computer monitor
on its side!
