Shawn,

I've had my eye on a vacuum pump for years but the commercial ones are expensive. This actually would have been an easy project to use vacuum bags though I need to get a better release film than contact paper. It was a bitch to get off. I also need to get motivated to scavenge the dump for a refrigerator compressor. They always have a dozen of them when I drop off my trash on Sat. and I read several articals on using them for vacuum pumping.

Regards,

Jack
