I want to start stabilizing some pen blanks.Can y'all recommend any vacuum pump for this?
I would not recommend using one of these as it is a vacuum generator and uses your compressor to make it work and depending on what size compressor you have will just about run continuously. Best to by a vacuum pump.
I bought the Robinair 15310 as suggested by Curtis at Turn_Tex. It provides all the vacuum needed for stabilizing and is very quiet. I bought in on Amazon for $112 with free shipping. Got it in 3 days. Can't beat the price.Check Curtis's site for recommended pumps. He's forgotten more than most of us will ever know about stabilizing.
