Is a vacuum chamber useful when making epoxy projects?

- I invested in a vacuum chamber to remove bubbles from epoxy. This is a €200 model made by Baco (including the vacuum pump). This video is about the set-up and a first test to see if degassing actually makes a difference.
I’m buying one tonight. Thanks.
but what is the result or difference with vacuum before poring and applying heat with heatgun or flame 🤔
Hello Stephan, thank you for your video. I have a question I bought a very comparable model from Vevor, the pump looks exactly like the one you have. When I turn on my pump then after a few seconds a white oil mist starts to come out of the pump. Is it the same with your pump? I'm afraid that the pump somehow does not work properly. And also I think that it is not particularly beneficial to health.
Hello. I do have a bit of oil coming out to, but just some drops. I think it's unavoidable with those cheap pumps. Does it make a good vacuum?
@@stephanforseilles Yes, it does, very well in fact. I have now put in another oil and it has become significantly better. Thank you!
11 mo late. But there is a video about what you describe. It's saying that much vapor coming is a indicator of a leak within the system.
Hi from Denmark
Great video. I love the comparison... it really puts any doubt to bed !
I just bought the very same model, "BACOENG 3CFM" .
How much oil does this thing consume?
Thanks! I've never had to top it up...
Me gusto como haces el proceso 3 veces ,es mas rápido que dejar una sola operación
Hi, thanks for the great videos!
I just bought the "Fraise 2 dents 2D 3D V-Carving Inlay 10° Pointe 0.5mm Queue 6mm" bit, but I can't find the VCarve parameters. Do any of your videos show your parameters?
My CNC machine is "RatRig 1510" (OpenBuilds GRBL).
I live in Finland, so mm is fine!
Thank you in advance!
Hello.
Thanks! These are the parameters I use most of the time (of course depths and speed to be adapted to your CNC): imgur.com/a/QYbhCgt
@@stephanforseilles Thanks!
Why do you think bubbles were in the 3rd one? Was it because the cup wasn't clean enough or didn't have mold release or something
After using it more, I learned that I should let the resin in vacuum for longer (about 10-15 min). All bubbles gone!
Hello
Good job, do you have the link of vacuum kit?

Sure! www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B01HRHVXM2/
Merci stephane
So if you were making a pyramid out of one to one resin. What would be the process. Any help would be greatly appreciated 😊🍻
So you are pouring resin in a pyramid-shaped mold? If the mold fits in the vacuum chamber, I would vacuum the whole thing for an hour or two.
