Dang! The Sanyo is still on backorder! ETA unknown!

The manifold set and adapter should all be here this week.
Perhaps I can do some testing on the hoses and make sure they are tight.

I've been wondering about making a bell-vacuum jar experiment.

I would build a little tube made of heavy clear plastic with caps and a 1/4" fitting.

Put a drop of water in the tube, pump out the air and watch the drop.
If it quickly vaporizes, not leaving a trace, the vacuum is pretty good.?..
