Hi everyone, I'm Johan from Enschede, The Netherlands. I'm a PhD student at Twente university and my main passion is for lasers (sorry fusor lovers). But besides lasers and optics I want to get into vacuum systems for various projects. Simple evaporative deposition, circulating electron beams and stuff, maybe even build a gas laser. I don't have any fusor plans yet, I already have way too many project I want to finish, but it's a project I'd love to do somehwere in the future.
What brings me here is the knowledge about vacuum system, specifically turbo's. I know everybody loves diffusion pumps around here, but they hardly ever appear second hand. And I have 3 turbo's from my university, likely all with bad bearings. Since working second hand turbo every one and a while appear at the cost of a new bearing set I'll be doing things cheaply. I'll be sourcing second hand vacuum parts anyway, that's already expensive enough.
Some years ago I made this together with Destin from the Smarter Every Day youtube channel, makes a nice introduction I think:
