[Shop-talk] water in basement

[Steven Trovato]

I'll add my vote for the shop vac.  With mine, you're supposed to 
remove the filter when you are using it for water.  Keep in mind that 
a shop vac full of water is very heavy.  It's great if there's a way 
to roll it somewhere to empty it.  It's not so great if the only way 
out is up a long flight of stairs.  In that case, you might want to 
use a pump to empty it out.  Just figure out the strategy ahead of time.
