RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Vac table, it works!

I have used the freon bottles for vacuum reservoirs up to 27" or so. Worked
fine. The only problem was eliminating a vacuum leak in the valve stem as it
was not designed to keep gas from being sucked in. Ended up just using some
non-hardening pipe dope and opened the valve all the way, smeared it on the
threads and then closed the valve and repeated. Once it was worked into the
threads the vacuum leak stopped and has not returned in the 8 or so years
since I set it up.
