A half-scale miniature vacuum for the laundry/utility room.   It is approximately 1 ½ inches tall. It is loosely based on this tutorial and a vintage Eureka Princess.  However, I used mat board, pony tail holders (for the bumper and the hose), beads for the wheels, and black felt for the upholstery brush.  The tube is from a 1/16” wide piece of hollow metal tubing I picked up at Berkeley Ace Hardware.  It probably is something for train model building, but it was perfect for this.
