Would we be interested in getting a vacuum pump for the G8?

Something like that:

It costs £87 for the 220l/m 0.5kW pump + £10 postage.

We will be able to do vacuum forming (if we get the received cylinder):

Vacuum plastic casting:

Vacuum metal casting:

We should also be able to make mirrors with vacuum evaporattion of metals, plasma-treat surfaces, and do other interesting vacuum projects.
