Re: Are COTS shop vacs legal? They have motors
No, a COTS shop vac as is is not legal if you are using the motor it comes with. However, it is legal to replace the motor in it with one from the kit of parts (the Fisher Price and Mabuchis are good choices).
Many teams are using the impellers and other mechanical components out of shop vacs, coupled with motors from the kit to power their vacuum mechanisms |
