A week ago, I posted a picture and some questions for my current project; I am thinking that a Vacuum Veneer Pressing Setup may make my life much easier….and I am thinking that I will also use this setup for many other projects. I would rather buy than build, unless building one myself will result in a much better system (I assembled a Clearvue Cyclone because I thought it was better than the prebuilt Oneida product.) I want to buy a Vacuum Veneer Pressing System once and not have to upgrade later…I am retired, and have too short a time for regrets! While price is important, I would rather pay more and buy from a place with great customer support and service. Any suggestions on which make/brand, model #/name, etc.? Been looking at the following:
1. Vacuum Pressing Systems; www.vacupress.com
Either the Industrial HiFlo Vacupress Cycling Pump 10 CFM Oil-less Rotary Vane, or
the Standard Professional Vacupress Cycling Pump 5 CFM Oil-less Rotary Vane.
(Compact100)
2. Joewoodworker; www.joewoodworker.com
I have no clue ????
3. Woodcraft; www.woodcraft.com/family.aspx?FamilyID=5086
4. Veneer Systems INC; www.veneersystems.com/vps.html
5. Some other supplier?
6a. Are the Polyurethane Bags worth the increase in price?
6b. 30mm worthwhile upgrade from 20mm?
6c. For larger pieces of furniture, would a 4’ by 8’ bag be plenty large enough or ?
Thanks so much,
Phil
