    Does anyone have experience with Laguna Tools 10HP Vacuum Pump?

    Does anyone have experience with Laguna Tools 10HP Vacuum Pump available at https://lagunatools.com/accessories/...mps/10hp-pump/? The price is really attractive and I'm thinking about buying it for my 5x10' table. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    3phase motor
    The pump is quite loud.

    I kind of already anticipated the loud part...as for 3P, that's a check...we have 240/480V 3P at the shop...I'm more so looking for feedback on its hold down capabilities...my current options are to either 1) get this pump or 2) build a custom rig using 4x lighthouse motors.

    This was used on a large router table for hold down in the manuf of Airline Aircraft cabin interior lining panels.

    @Al_The_Man, so what you're saying is that aside from the loud noise and 3P requirement, this Laguna Tools 10HP Pump is a wise investment becuase it will do the job? Any caveats or other things to be cautious of?

    I never really had a problem apart from the noise, the customer ended up putting it the other side of the wall!

    Hard to say without knowing the specs. But I doubt that you'd find anything close to that for the price.
