Re: Looking for roller brush
The roller brushes from commercial vacuum cleaners don't match the size constraints listed above. The instant this competition came out I took apart an old upright vacuum (for a different purpose)--The component shown above is no more than 1" diameter with 1/2" bristles. An in most vacuums it will be closer to 10" rather than 18" long. I think a teams best bet is to make their own brush using hair brushes or commercial bristles on a piece of pipe.
