Does anyone have any experience with the Vacu-Press Compact 100 system that Rockler carries ($325)? I’m looking to get into some veneering. Thanks.

Hello I.P.,
I haven't looked at that unit but would suggest you might consider some other options if you're a DIY kind of person as most woodworkers are.
If you have a large compressor you don't need the little vacuum unit, all you need is a venturi vacuum which cost about 30 -40 bucks.
The bag can be custom made to whatever size you want by buying sheets of heavy duty vinyl.
I think if you do some searching you can find a lot of discussion on this forums about all this. Also check out this site.

Good luck!
