Dust Collector "Dust Collection Bag"
I have for years been displeased with the dust collection bags for the DC-3300. The bags are simply too big.
This is what I believe the dust collection bag should look like when the dust collector is being used:
This is not what I think it should look like. It bulges this way because it is much larger than it needs to be and this is the result.
Does anyone have a suggestion on where to find an appropriately sized bag. Does Shopsmith have one that I am not ordering but should be.

This is what mine looks like with a DC330L bag, which I ordered by mistake. I had to stretch the top of the bag a little, all around the top edge, so it would fit, but it does seem to work pretty well for me.

Re: Dust Collector "Dust Collection Bag"
Dusty, when you find your new, smaller bags, I'll pay postage for your old DC-3300 bags. I like the size!
