Just wondering if anyone has found another bag that fits on the DC3300 other than the one from Shopsmith? The shipping charges and slow response has me looking for other options like Amazon.

Thanks, Phil

They don’t blow out on you? Happy to go the cheaper route if possible. I really lucked out and my used unit has the 42” top hood.

I reuse them and empty into normal trash bags. Duct tape does a great job if dealing with any holes that occur up until the bag is complete toast.

Use the heavy duty reinforced cinch tie bags.(the ones with a draw string)

Glad 30 gallon "force flex".

Works like a champ. No more dust leaking around the lower bags top end. The lower cloth bag that came with my used unit was not a stock item and I really have no idea what it would fit. It is safely tucked away for some future use now. Thanks for the tip.

By the way, the 3300 beats the pants off of my old Jet unit I had once before.I do not remember the model number but it was a light weight for sure.

They have a low price, so they are used everywhere: homes, hospitals, schools, kindergartens, various businesses, etc. They have even begun to be used on street garbage cans, which has greatly simplified cleaners' work. Also, thanks to them, the removal of household waste in our cities has become noticeably cleaner and more environmentally friendly because now the garbage is not blown by the wind when loading it into the garbage truck.
Yes it IS on topic. It IS the only/first post by that individual.

I simply find that suspicious.
