If you mill out the surface so that only very thin lands are left to support
the workpiece, the holding power will be a lot higher.
Pounds per square inch and all that. If you don't believe me, try it with
only one hole uncovered on a piece the size of your vac table..... Small
holes are fine, if there's no leakage, the "pressure" inside the resulting
"chamber" will be uniform, just spread over a much larger area... /mark
