Did my first blanks today

[jd99]

Finally got everything done on my vacuum chamber today, and did my first load, I was able to pull 29" of vacuum.... well if the gage is reading right it's 29".

I put in a bleedoff inline valve to control the amount of foam when it first started, after it settled down I was able to just let it sit there and run.

See the Pics below

Forgot to take a picture of the wood before I started. :frown:

Thanks

What liquid

What liquid did you use?

What liquid did you use?

I used Cactus Juice, From Curtis's site (Turntex.com)

Really easy process once you have all the equipment.

Looks great.

Make sure to isolate the vacuum pump when you shut off the vacuum. Otherwise, the vacuum in the box will suck all of the oil out of your pump and into your cactus juice/blank stew. Not that I will admit that this happened to me.
