TIU E5: Compressor and Vacuum Chuck System
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Episode 5 of the 'Tools I Use and Why I Use Them' series looks at the compressed air and vacuum chuck system we have here in the workshop.
Our compressor is a 'silent' Hyundai 50l unit which is superb and provides enough puff for the teaching room, Les' workshop, and mine, too.
The vacuum chuck system I use is the one from Holdfast with the 4" and 6" chucks.

Very useful information and well presented
Great information, Martin. Now a video of the vacuum chuck being used would be great. Thanks.
Thanks for showing us your set-up Martin!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎😎
Always interesting and informative, Martin. As always, thanks for sharing 🌞
I was curious/interested in the hold fast vacuum chuck for an while but I didn't know very much about it. so, thank you for making this video!
Very Nice, Martin.
Hi Martin Great explanation! I have just acquired same system from my father in law but I have a 25 litre compressor that has oil lubrication - is there any reason I should not use this? TIA
Does the compressor run constantly while using the vacuum generator or does it cycle on and off?

Just like when you use a compressor with an air gun, it turns on as and when the pressure drops below the set pressure. It will then switch off when the pressure in the tank reaches its set max pressure.
I am attempting to use my pancake compressor and can't get enough pressure to hold wood. Any reccomendations?
I have a question Have you ever turned coconut palm, does it turn well or is it a problem wood that needs stabilising
How high of a vacuum can it pull and what pressure do you use at the compressor? Thanks...
