OK, I have a decent vacuum pump......
........and now I want to make a "Vacuum Rig", I've had a good look at www.joewoodworker.com and I think his article on the EVS Set Up looks like the way to go, at least the concept, if not the actual system.
Some of the things he talks about in his EVS I'll get from him, as I have no idea where to get them here in Japan.
I was wondering if anyone else has built this type of system and can offer some advice?
I want to use it for a vacuum chuck on the lathe, and a vacuum bag for veneer.
Cheers!
BTW, the 20mm ID hose, I think they call it "Braided Tubing"
I got for the vacuum pump, well, if I stick one end on the pump, and block the other end, the pump sucks it flat as a pancake in about 2 seconds......Maybe this pump is a bit too big???
