Step 5Bigger IS Better
If you can find one go for a bigger ROTORY compressor.
I found one in a great big, old deep freezer. The freezer itself was at least 5 feet long, maybe 6.
I wish I could have taken the whole thing, I would have made a solar drier out of it or something, but I don't have the room.
Anyway the compressor is awesome. About twice the volume in size, but three to four times the CFM. Just what I was looking for.
Also I ran the pump for about 30 minutes under full load and it was barely warm to the touch.
It still did not go past the -27 inches of mercury, though. Fine with me.
