it looks like your questions have been answered. If it holds wood
well enough for you to do what you need to do, then you got a good
deal. there is my "booklet" on vac chucking which you can find on my
web site, www.wbnoble.com - it will give you a table of holding forces
versus the amount of vacuum.

note - if this pumpuses oil, be sure to point the exhaust into a can
or something so you dont' get oil all over everything - and you don't
want to be breathing oily mist.

hi william. i just came into posession of a vacume pump. it is a
shuco. ser # 1182664 if that helps. that is the only info on the pump
i can find. it has a guage on it and when running if i hold my finger
over the inlet it registers almost 22 cm hg. will this have enough
power to use for turning small bowls? thanks.
