    Turn down your video game in the background... It's hard to hear you talk over it

    A small vacuum generator device hooked to your compressor will save your compressor from destruction

    This way hack is better than to glue a pipe where you glued a hole. You can vac/pres at the same time. Nice experiment Tariq 👍

    @Tariq Curtis Some tyre inflators don't have inlet valve. The inlet of air in to the cylinder is through space between the piston and cylinder as the piston moves down. How can this type of tyre inflator be converted to vacuum pump. Thanks

    Hi Tariq, just what you are using the vacuum pump for. I'm thinking of making one using space bag while camping to reduce space on bulky items.

    I just finished this same exact thing and I am kinda bummed about the poor vacuum pressure. But I am not surprised since this pump model is cheaply made. I got another pump (black and decker air station) but I am unable to figure out how to covert it to a vacuum pump.

    I have a portable Handy Vacuum Cleaner, which has the dual function of air suction & air blower.

    Interesting thanks for sharing. Do you think it would work as a vacuum pump if you just connected a small hose to that small inlet hole? You could attach it to the vertical part next to the hole and seal around the edges?

    Why didn't you just tap a thread into the inlet hole and attach a small piece of threaded pipe to connect the suction pipe to?
