The $149.99 one pulls to 22.5 microns. Can anyone help translate that into gunsmithing-ese? Specifically, is that enough vacuum to do the job? On a conversion table that translates to 0 bars. Am I correct that 0 bars is a greater vacuum than the 3 bars damascus mentioned? Or, am I bassackwards?

This apparatus could be a huge improvement over soaks if it will work and could be assembled for under $300. I believe I can make the pressure vessel from salvaged pipe, etc. It would be so easy to repeat the toilet tissue wrap, and let sit overnight in the container, as many times as needed to remove most of the oil. The possibility of picking up a used one cheap is a good idea too, craig, thus lowering the initial costs even more.
