Because I don't really want to shell out over $1500 on a system only to find out I hate it, we built a diy clipper vac using the Pet Playground attachment and the Home Depot shop vac top with a pail so I could get a feel for how it works.
I do really like the fact that it cleans up the hair while I'm working, but I'm having some issues.
First of all, the attachment won't stay in place, it keeps sliding up the clipper (Wahl KM 10 and Wahl KM10) and wobbling back and forth.
Secondly, when I do hold it in place and do a side by side comparison (clip one side with the vac, one side the normal way), I just can't get it as nice with the CV as I can without.
So I'm feeling a bit discouraged at the moment. Is this just an issue with the attachment or other part of my system, is it my type of clipper, is it operator error, or is it just CVs in general. I know lots of people rave about them but even the few videos I watched to try to figure out what I'm doing wrong I wasn't that impressed with the resulting haircut.
