I am considering buying a vacuum bag for laminating various furniture parts using epoxy. Can any body recommend a high quality machine? Thanks

I've been very happy with the 4x8 bag I purchased from http://www.vacupress.com and their support and forum are excellent. They offer several choices in bag material and thickness to meet your expected level of usage.
Thanks Don for your suggestion, I'll check it out.

check out this site. This guy even has plans to build one. He offers everything from supplies to build a bag, or you can buy one.

I put together my vacuum veneering set up from "Joe Woodworker" and it works exceptionally well. When I had trouble with the pump on start up Joe worked with me to trouble shoot the system and get me on the road to vacuum pressing rather quickly. Total cost about $450.00.
