Seek Vacuum Source for Testing Pneumatics
By Glenn Roat

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender and MMD --

I am looking for a low-cost (simple) vacuum pump or suction box
to use as a vacuum source for testing pneumatics, etc.  I would think
10 inches of vacuum, maximum, would be adequate, but it needs to be
quiet so leaks can be located.  Anyone out there have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Glenn Roat

 [ Make a simple exhauster bellows that lies on the floor under your
 [ workbench where your foot can pump it.  Absolutely quiet!  ;-)
