The first vacuum my parents bought in 1959 was an electrolux; an option that they didn’t buy, was a vacuum powered drill. It looked like a pancake with the hose connection on one edge and the chuck at right angles from the center of the unit. It did work in the demo in our house … he vacuumed up the drill shavings too!!
