I built a vacuum clamping system

I just finished mine couple days ago, definitely a smaller brother of yours :slight_smile:




I plan on using this 8" by 7" vacuum puck on some smaller projects + making 3 more for a bigger ones.
Also doing a tiny one tomorrow, 5.5" x 3.5" for business cards engravings, idea from this YT : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdSVMygb450&t=1s
I would say the hardest part was finding pipe fittings coming out from the pump. Things you learn when you find out the flare thread is not the same as NPT :slight_smile:

What projects do you use your vacuum system for?
