I have been toying with the idea of adding a vacuum pump to my collection of tools and have the opportunity to purchase one second hand 1HP Thomas pump
with a small tank. Apparently it is lightly used and was previously used for vacuum chucking previously. He is asking 300 for the set up. Is that a far deal? Is a tank really needed for this purpose, seems like tanks go with compressors and not for vacuuming? Is there a better "entry level" set up for the casual user that I should be considering instead?
thanks,
