tazdevilal Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 Hi. This is just a quick question that probably has been asked before but as I have finished my vac table and a surge tank set up also made up I am looking for a decent vac pump to use INDOORS. The tables got a vac surface of 60cm square and if my calculations are right there are 2 6ltr tanks for holding the air. I have seen a few options and they are around 1.5 too 4 CFM and have an HP of 1/4. This is a range of pics of my table set up http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/27868-vacuum-forming-table-pump/page-2#entry353775 All help as usual greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTrooper Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 Check out HVAC supply shops. They will have vac pumps and the sky is the limit on how much air they will move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazdevilal Posted July 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 Cheers for that. I was looking at that site. I'm only looking to do minimum pulls. Currently trying my hand at pepakura build. Done the helmet but not started hardening it. Going to make it into a mold a use it to pull some HIPS. Should really start showing off my new pride and joy before getting to far ahead in the helmet and armour so people believe me lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
