Have you tried on more than one piece of wood? Some wood is so open grained that I sometimes get low vacuum until I wipe on some wood butter which fills the pores. I am assuming your air compressor is at 90 psi or more? If so I would try placing on something non porous like a dinner plate or cookie sheet. If you still get low numbers then I think it is defective and they should send you a replacement.
@@woodworkingmcdanielstyle Thanks for the quick reply. If I do not have the line attached and place my finger on the nipple of the vacuum generator, I only get 6 Hg at that point, so I am thinking the generator is faulty. I appreciate you.
@markfutato7547 you are very welcome. Sorry you had a bad experience. Hopefully they replace it with no hassle for you. I have had mine for several years with no issues but I’m not sure if I got lucky or you were unlucky…
You saved me some money! Great work again Mr. McDaniel! Appreciate you!
Thanks Anthony! I appreciate the feedback and glad I could help.
Try Rubber Chucky
Thank you. I’ll check them out.
I just bought the system and at best I get 6” Hg. Not nearly enough vacuum. Suggestions?
