I'm back,
« on: November 13, 2013, 03:16:05 am »
I've been pretty quiet on here for a few month's, well not a lot has changed. I've given away one of my restored Dc07's as a moving in present, (they couldn't understand why it looked like brand new for its age) If only they discovered my strange hobby!!

Got the dysons out of hibernation today, managed to pick up a full original tool set for my DC01 and the original green tool set for my DC04 abs purple lime :)

Had the DC01 out today and actually used it! Took me back about 15 years! Oh the memories :)

I'm feeling another machine adoption before Christmas we will see!!

Dyson DC01 silver yellow
Dyson DC04 absolute purple lime
Dyson DC07 precision
Dyson DC11 all floors
Dyson DC24 multi floor
Hoover Turbopower junior (unsure of model as in loft)
Miele S2111

I did have a dc07 origin but gave that away last week and also had another dc07 in the shed but I stripped it for parts last night and now it all fits in the miele's box lol

The original DC01 tools came today, also the bright green tools for my DC04. Both look complete now. Would like to try and find a purple cable with the green moulded plug so the DC04 is completely original. :)

Put you some up of my collection of Dyson's, may not be many but quality is better than quantity. :p

Nice collection! I have a DC04 Absolute+ in the garage, although it's broken, and has many parts scattered around the country! It saved another ab+'s life!

I'm sure we could dig one of those out.

Oh thank you very much, I'm feeling all dysonish at the moment but I'm living for pay day at the moment. This is not good :(
