15/07/09 Pics

A picture of the old compressor tank that Poppy picked up from the dump for $10.00.

I bought fittings for it (BSP threads) to connect to the compressor that I've got, then ran it down to around 25inches of mercury. It holds vacuum beautifully. By that, I mean that it didn't collapse with an enormous crash.

Next step - is to mount the compressor motor, electronic vacuum switch, and tap.
