Abstract
A filter assembly for use with a vacuum apparatus and a hair clipper is disclosed. The assembly includes a top piece, a bottom piece, and a filter member. The top piece is formed having a generally circular perimeter with an inlet aperture located on the perimeter such that the inlet aperture is adapted for tangential acceptance of a vacuum hose. The specific arrangement of components, including the tangential position of the aperture, creates a hair collecting vortex within the assembly when a vacuum source is attached and activated.
