Glad you caught it early. Imagine brushing your teeth and a toothbrush cyst bursts in your mouth

I have both a Miele canister similar to your pic and a cordless Shark Rocket. The Rocket:

• is easier to move around the house
• has a reusable dust collector that is easy to empty
• has reusable filters that just need to be cleaned once a month or so
• doesn’t get jammed by hair
• was somewhere around 1/3 to 1/2 the price of the Miele

Whereas the bulkier and more expensive Miele unit has disposable bags and filters, and the brush head (that I had to buy separately for close to the price of the whole ass Shark vacuum) is constantly jammed and needs to be completely disassembled to clear it.

The place I am storing the crimper is the place where I thought I had stored the connectors. 💔

Luckily, the cables are already run throughout the house. They are cat5e but currently terminated with RJ11, which isn’t terribly useful to me these days.

I’ll be installing ports at one end. The connectors are going in the (unfinished) basement where I intend to move the modem/router/server PC. :)
