Hehe

No doubt, the best explanation of how to use a vacuum chamber anywhere on the internet. Thank you, thank you!! You should write a book!!

[@isaacayala5937]

Once you pull it from the chamber are you reheating it to get it back up to temp?

[@stevemccormack8101]

Just so you know. Those little white filters go onto the burp valve so you don't get any junk sprayed into the pot when you release the vacuum.

[@theduck3977]

Your videos are cool and I learn from them about soft plastics

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Awesome 👍

[@mariogayoso]

What an excellent video !! It would've been great to see that pierced gauge process to understand the whole concept but you pretty much cover it all !

[@EUAngler]

Thanks for the info. I was strugling with those bubles, now I know what I need 👊 Thank you 🙏👍😅

[@deanfaulkner4967]

Thank you for the advice. I have been thinking of buying one and now it's a definite. 👍

[@TheSargeOnTheWater]

Mine has smoke coming out the vacuum. Is that normal?

[@woodmasterran9528]

Thanks for the video! I have been looking into purchasing a vacuum chamber. Looking on Amazon, I found the kit you purchased, with an acrylic lid and a 3.6 cfm pump. They also offer a three gallon chamber with a glass lid and a 4.5 cfm pump for $30.00 more. Would there be any advantage to buying this kit over the kit you purchased?

[@jamescooper694]

where do you buy more oil for the vacuum chamber

[@kellylynn727]

Why did you choose this one opposed to a Vevor? Looking at them on Amazon now and the Vevor 3 gallon is $50 less. Is it not as good?

[@renesalinas1029]

Mine didn't come with instructions so I'd have to cut to top of the liquid gauge? I turn mine on and it stops at 5 lol

[@azuriterocks2152]

Chris, you mentioned something about the pressure valve being pierced to regulate better. Is that for basically all vacuumed units w same look? Do I use a needle?

[@davidtitcombe4686]

Thanks for a very informative video, has answered a lot of questions I had. I noticed you vacuumed plastic with colour and flake in it, would it be advisable to degas after adding flake and co!our each time to get all bubbles out. Thanks

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

either way seems to work

[@hannable3871]

Tips and tricks love it good pointers thanks chris.

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Anytime

[@UWPcustombaits]

I literally bought this same brand lollll has been working fine so far.

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Well that's good to hear

[@gameplaywithbp1798]

Is it ok to buy glitter from target and put it in your baits?

[@kallencosper8531]

Your the best keep it up

[@DeeDee-vu5mi]

just foumd this video. Thanks for the review. So now its been a year , how is it holding up. Reason is that most of the Amazon negative reviews on this brand are people experiencing spiderweb cracking on the top. Both the acrylic and the hi temp glass.

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Had to replace the pump but the pot and lid have held up well

[@DeeDee-vu5mi]

@@WorldsWorstFishing thanks for info. I am getting ready to order one

[@kubat.flyfishing]

What is the pot size ?

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

3 or 5 gallon

[@edgarmiears5992]

Does the pressure gauge have to have oil in it????

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Mine doesn't..I do it by sight basically

[@edgarmiears5992]

Thank you, I was worried the oil leaked out of it. Have a great day.

[@fishman92772]

Thanks, now to convince the wifey of the next investment. Is there a way I can order a sticker from you?

[@chadc7846]

Use a filter on the end of your burp valve. It should screw in no problem. You had two in the bag.

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Yeah I eventually figured out what those were for, my first pot did not have any filters..was confused at first

[@chadc7846]

World's Worst Fishing great video Chris! My first vac I was a bit confused as well Lol. have a great weekend sir! Be safe.

[@BigBaitsBigFish]

My thing is do u keep it in there till there’s not a single bubble popping at all I’m useing red med from dead on plastic and my 8”fluke mold from angling AI still keeps getting bubbles in it is it heat /speed/defectedmold/coldermold? I blow torch scorch every mold befor useing get the moisture out iv tried a lot different injectors duel injectors and can’t seem to not get bubbles I’m stuck lol

[@danamikeal97]

Give me the old one and I will replace the gasket and put it back in service!!

[@oldschoolcars3318]

Did that pump take a dump yet? ...Sell me your old pot

[@JLA1911A1]

Sell me your old one for parts! I can probably fix it.

[@TLAS]

So, because a silicone gasket wears out, you throw out the whole system? 🤦‍♂️

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Was time for an upgrade, plus showing a new one being set up made for better content.. Appreciate your concern though

[@TLAS]

@@WorldsWorstFishing Not so much a concern as it was a reaction. And after all, isn’t that what you’re going for? 😉 That said, I found it to be an informative video as I have that system on order.

[@MichaelLapore-lk9jz]

Junk

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Thanks for watching!! Vac Chambers rule!

[@erlinglarsen]

Chris I have a challenge for your hand pours 😂🤣 look up Murray Cod and see if you can copy the pattern for us Aussies.Nice to see you got a new vacuum chamber it looked like you loved the old one when you talked about it🤣👍

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

@@erlinglarsen sounds like a cool challenge!! Haha yeah the old Vac had been by my side for years

[@erlinglarsen]

Cool will be good to see you try the pattern.I just got rid of my old belt sander for lure making was cheap and nasty and had seen its day 🤣😂 I just bought a new one it's way better to use. I was like a kid opening a Christmas present 🤣.

[@ianfarquharson3772]

The silicone mat if for pouring your concentrates on. It's the most popular set up for THC butane extraction lol.Great vid though.

[@rogeliobravo4927]

Would've never thought that moisture can collect in the plastisol like that, fun fact the bubbles that you see in the cup are actually moisture that is in fact boiling, any moisture under vacuum will boil and evaporate which is why it works so good, but im sure you knew that already, this comment is more for your viewers lol great job there, i wonder if ill ever be able to make baits myself...

[@mhl8502]

I never made plastic baits until I saw these videos they’re absolutely fantastic I am very enthusiastic I watch all the videos I love making these lures keep up the great work !!!

[@ice1981x]

Looking to get a vacuum chamber looking at some and they are made of different glass.The one I’m looking at the lid is made of acrylic.Would that be ok too get for making soft plastics.

[@fishingwithhoffman7365]

How hot is your plastics when you put them in the chamber?

[@laftasreda6965]

hello please what is the material of the lid I used worm, it burst when I turned on the compressor

[@jacobpicard25]

What temp is the plastisol when you put it in the vacuum chamber?

[@fredscheerle7592]

probably could just got a new pot, saved some more coin!

[@greatwhitesfishingadventur2273]

Great Insight into the mechanics of using a Vacuum Pot !!! Seems to me you have the same issues in the US as we have here in Aus ..... The products do not have Made in USA or Made in Aus ..............

yea they are all chinese it seems

Been using for several months works well.

[@Big_Mike72]

I’ve been away from the channel for awhile. I want to say thanks for putting together this video. I’m definitely will be making the jump to getting a vac next year.

[@John-eq8cu]

so wait.... your vacuum pump is no good anymore? Will you go into why the old one failed? Is it because you didn't protect the pump from condensable vapors?

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

This has been ages ago...but the pump one day shut off and never worked again...they are cheap

[@Spc20061]

I’ve used one of these for other things! 😂. But not yet for soft plastics! Super informative video man!

[@Spc20061]

I’m thinking of getting into this hobby! But I do have a question should I still use the vacuum chamber if I’m re melting other baits? Cause some of the other videos I’ve seen from someone new it has bubbles 🫧 Unless they are doing new plastic

[@allenbmooresharinginformation]

How is the chamber holding up for you? It has 7% negative reviews on Amazon with most comments seeming to be manufacturing errors.

[@larrypayne1136]

Bought the pump, works great. I started getting to the last third of my dead on plastics and starting having moisture and air bubble problems after not making baits for a few months over the winter. I highly recommend people to buy this pump, it will save me money and aggravation in the long run. As always, great video and advice from these awesome videos.

[@marctheriault]

Well this certainly blows the under $500 initial setup cost right out of the water, literally! LOL But I found a damaged box version of this model online that saved a few more bucks, so off we go. Thanks again for the invaluable info. Definitely my favorite tutorial series of any subject matter I've ever seen. I love the fact that we get to learn from your successes and failures, all delivered with the same humility. Thanks again.

[@OMFGBigBass]

I’m vacuuming my plastic before and after heating. When I inject some molds (pit boss) won’t get any air bubbles in bait. When I inject other molds (yamamoto cowboy and Flappin hog) getting a lot of air bubbles. Tried everything I could think of and can’t fix it. Any ideas? Using pm212 plastic

[@dennishodson990]

Glad to see this video. Bought the exact same Chamber, but haven't used it yet. Too busy building molds and practicing with torn up baits (not worrying about looks for now). Although, some of the mixed colors are turning out awesome!!

[@SolarfallBaits]

Great tutorial, been looking to get one of these vacuum chambers for my self too.

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

You should!

[@austinbraconier5449]

Watch out opening the burp valve too quickly especially if you cup is right under the hole. My first time shot got plastic all over in the chamber...

[@richgebhardt7960]

Chris, fyi the black plastic pc with the foam looking core screws into the burp side, it filters the air when you release pressure.

[@anthonyjesus6151]

That's a two-part resin, right? Why cook it in a microwave? Do you only do this to one part or both before mixing?

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

It's plastisol compound

[@anthonyjesus6151]

@@WorldsWorstFishing AHA! Gotcha! Ok, thanks for the response.

[@jamescooper694]

how many minutes to cook the plastic all the way thru I couldn't see what it was I use dead on plastic I like it better then the other ones I got it from watching one of your videos

[@toddjudd8657]

Gasket maker could probably fix the old one. But nice video anyways

[@michaelrobledo]

If I don't vacuum out the bubbles in the plastic will the bait be more buoyant?

[@raywilliams6098]

Chris in the market for a chamber. How is that one treating you after just over a year?

[@rloera601]

that was every great and informative .And now I'm needing to get one.

[@kleinboysoutdoors5666]

Great video thanks for the information

[@joegattuso2052]

Another great video. Keep them coming.

[@fishingwithspencie]

What's the difference between the pot with the valves on the side of the pot vs this one with them on the lid?

[@DBOLT666]

You've probably figured this out by now but I believe the pot with the gauges on the lid has a thick perspex lid where as the pot with the gauges on the side has a tempered glass lid for resins that use chemicals that could damage an ordinary perspex type lid 👍

[@allforcrafting7893]

Thank You. Very usefull.

[@jberranner]

Can the seal not be replaced?

[@claudeharridge5413]

Good video, want to sell your old one?

[@LJ_74]

As plenty people have said already, awesome video. Do you ever degas multiple cups at the same time? I’d imagine that being able to do 2 or even 3 would make laminates a lot easier, but I’m not sure if there are any downsides or if you could even fit multiple 2-cup measuring cups simultaneously.

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Yes I do! anytime Im doing multipke colors

[@danieleatherly1135]

Chris thank you for the in depth use of the vacume pump . I was wondering if you where going to prefers hot over cold plastic thank you enjoyed the video!!!!

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

hot for sure

[@dmv_bassin]

Great videos sir, I actually just had my Bacoeng Vacuum Chamber delivered today and have a question about the gauge, instructions say to leave the rubber plug open for about 10-15 minutes for it to adjust, silly question but are you supposed to be running chamber with the plug open or do you close it after the 15 minutes and then run it?

[@shanestudy5317]

Curious on this ? Just got mine haha

[@jimcoleman4558]

Along with a quality injector the degas chamber was a great investment as I started to make baits. From my experience use the rubber mat it helps keep cups from moving while shaking the pot. Also orient the burp valve opposite you cups to minimize splashing while burping. I have a long enough hose on my pump to place it on top of my microwave directly under my vent hood. Great stuff Chris keep us informed!

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Haha yeah NEVER burp the valve with the cup directly under .. I learned that the hard way many years ago with my old pot

[@gregmitchell3197]

Great video Chris, thanks for your knowledge and experience. Keep casting brother!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

Thanks! Will do!

[@lancehenthorn17]

[@aarondavis8224]

Im an commercial HVAC tech and I use vacuum pumps regularly. I was wondering how often you change the oil in your pumps? Not changing the oil will give them a short life. The oil should be changed pretty regularly because it has an affinity for moisture. Also what cfm is your pump? Mine is a dual stage 10 cfm and I think its a lot of pump for this application but I can hook up my guages with it and have valves to control the speed of the vacuum

[@WorldsWorstFishing]

these are small single stage pumps...like $30 at harbor frieght
