Hi All, I would like to take a dive into stabilization and ultimately casting. I have done a good bit of research and watched the requisite number of youtube videos and I have elected to purchase ready made products vs making my own. I have a couple of options to get me started but before I tell the options, my biggest concern is that both options have the 3/4 inch acrylic lid...... is that a deal breaker right there and should I keep looking?
Ok, with that question out of the way, here are what I consider my two best options right now.
Option one.... A BACOENG 3 gallon Vacuum chamber with 3.6 CFM one stage pump for $60 from a liquidation dealer. From all appearances in the pictures, it has not been used. New Amazon price is $127.00
Option two....a new 5 gal vacuum chamber, (they did not provide a manufacturing name, but it has a red edge around the acrylic lid. From the picture comparison, it looks like a Bestauto which runs from $75 to $98 on Amazon. I can get this for $60 also.
If I go with option two, then of course I have to still pick up a pump.
What say yee, oh wise men and woman?
(and yes, I know I will probably get plenty of opposing opinions and ultimately the decision is mine....but I still value your opinions and recommendations....thanks)
