Back in 2011 I purchased a range of equipment from EC and up until now I was using the resin catchpot as a vacuum chamber to degas my resin because it came as part of the resin infusion kit.
But even with the admittedly small quantity of resin I have been needing to degas recently (maybe 15g resin plus half qty hardener) I was finding that it would reach the top of a pint cup inside my makeshift vacuum chamber aka resin catchpot and need alot of cleaning up.
So, rather than get the huge 26+ litre EC degassing chamber I've decided to take a punt on the vac-it-pro 3 gallon vacuum chamber from the USA.
I will provide an update once I receive it but youtube videos from users of the product seem positive and the design seems nice. I first came across it when a youtube user meganbeads has a video degassing resin, admittedly a different type of resin to what we are using but the vac chamber itself does the job.

Received the vac-it-pro 3 gallon vacuum chamber today and it works perfectly. A very nice piece of kit and very cost effective (~£140) compared to anything I could find in the UK (>£250).
