In this quick life hack video I'll show you how to make a super cheap vacuum sealer that you can use to vacuum seal just about anything!
The items I used in this lifehack can be found quite easily. Who know's, maybe you have some of this stuff laying around your house.

that's a creative idea. Submerging the ziplock bag in water will also work. Water pressure will push the air out. It costs less, doesn't ruin a bag, and no equipment is needed.

Purchased a food vacuum sealer for about $105 cdn , spent a lot of time getting bags made, then sealed only to have 3/4 loose there seal. Went to the pet store purchased the items required about 20 cdn. Just finished repacking all the previous items in a 10th of the time with a much better seal at a much reduced cost by using the freezer bags . Thanks, this is such a useful DIY project

It worked! I used a food saver freshsaver handheld vacuum I had and put a a tiny straw in it. It was the idea of using a toothpick to make the hole first and then cut the straw at an angle to get it in. Thank you so much!

I'm going to try this, but make one modification. Use a larger bag (like a gallon bag) as a semi permanent vacuum chamber, and use the item you want to seal in a smaller bag (like a quart bag). Put the item in the small bag and put that into the large bag. You use this pump and the bigger bag with a hole in it, and it will remove all the air within both bags. The pressure will close the smaller bag inside (you may have to adjust it a bit or press through both bags to firmly close it correctly) then you can remove the smaller bag and put that in the freezer without worry for the packing tape issues.

In fact I went further. Just get one of those "space saver" vacuum bags for storing clothes, put your zip-lock small bag inside, seal the outer bag and vacuum all the air out of it. Before you open the outer bag, seal the zip-lock bag as it should already have all the air sucked out of it. After that it's simply a matter of opening the "space saver" bag and taking out the perfectly vacuum sealed zip-lock bag.

+TheWindGinProject Here is a cost list all via eBay with free shipping. T Connector was 5.89, Check No Return Valve was 3.99, 60ML Syringe was 2.96 & the Air Line tubing was 3.54 for a total of 16.38. I believe this system will work better than the few retail manual versions on the market. I have read that the special bags with the valve will leak pressure and therefore are not reliable. Plus those special bags are expensive. I will report back after I try the system.

+TheWindGinProject Great! Cost me way less than that! Try it out and see how it works for you. The guys over at instructables tried it out and tell me although it works well, there is a little bit of skill required when pulling out the tube once all/most of the air is removed. Some material engineers said that the plastic will leak air over time and that I should consider using thicker bags. Hope you have success in sealing something on a budget like many others did.

Mad Science Hacks | Life hacks & How to OK, Thanks for the extra information. I think a reliable way to keep the vacuum seal would be to put the sealed bag inside of another cheap bag. However I have a different type of tape in mind that may at least keep the tape from being a leak issue. I will experiment with heavier bags also. It would be good of you to correct the title and take the 2 dollar cost out of the title. I'm not complaining but that should be corrected I think. Cheers!

+Mad Science Hacks | Life hacks & How to REVIEW: I gave it an honest try but it does not work well enough to be useful. It does work as far as removing excess air from the bag but it is very clumsy and the seal simply is not reliable at all. Therefore, for all practical purposes this is not a good option for vacuum sealing anything. (food or dry goods) It is a waste of time and money. I'm not upset but I feel that this Hack is a bad one. Peace

@MadScienceHacksTV 8 жыл бұрын
Sorry to hear that. The folks over at Instructables tried it with very good results. The seal strength depends on the bag you use and the technique employed for pulling out the pipe. If it does leak, it's only because the zipper on the bag isn't closing all the way towards the corners. This could be how it is manufactured ans isn't your fault. The beauty of this hack is that we are using items that weren't designed for this task. The video shows enough proof of a tight seal but thank you for posting your comment. I'm sure that this will help someone else.

Instead of compromising the zip lock bag with the puncture hole, why not simply place the tube in the bag at one side of the zipper. Then run the zipper closure right up to the tube. Hold the bag tight around the tube, draw out the air, then in one motion pull out the tube while closing the zipper completely. That way there is no tape or any compromise to the bag and its vacuum. Another interesting way to create the vacuum is to utilize a "brake bleeder" vacuum tool to manually pull a vacuum on the bag. Innovative video. Greetings from Ontario, Canada.

Thanks! Awesome! Just curious since I am not very scientific: what purpose does the second valve serve (the one that dangles off to the side that is not directly between the bag and the pump)? Is it to release air being pushed out of the syringe on the down-pushing stroke?
@MadScienceHacksTV
@MadScienceHacksTV 7 жыл бұрын
+Yodaismycopilot That is correct. The valves are positioned in opposite flow directions. The 'dangling' valve is the exhaust valve which allows you to compress the syringe on the down stroke.

Any time a person puts something to a test, they need to test the results of whatever they are doing. Otherwise your video is just a theory. If it sealed but didnt' keep food fresh then it wouldn't work. People would be pretty pissed at spending money and time only to find this out. Suggestion: If you're going to make videos like this, ALWAYS test it multiple times. Title a project, list your parts, methods, notes, time to assemble, time to completion, completion time, outcome, and most important, results. Cost for parts as well as labor if applicable. I can guarantee you will get more credibility which is more valuable than money or 'Likes' on social media.

Fantastic idea, however by the time I purchase the parts from ebay, I can buy a Vacuum Sealer from Aldi.Perhaps I am buying from the wrong crowd. Thanks for the video though.

This is too complicated and expensive. All you need is a length of 1/4 or less of tubing or even a plastic straw. Slip it in the bag all the way to the bottom. Seal the Zip Lock Bag up to the hose or straw. Place the other end of the tube or straw in your mouth, suck on the tube/straw and pull it out as you do this. As the tube/straw get to the sealing part press the seal and your done. Now place in freezer and your good to go. I've been sealing foods like this for years. But I would recommend you use the best Zip Lock Bag available at your store.

vacuum sealing could be done by submerging the ziplocked food in water. you close it while the mouth is above water

Yes, you are sucking some air out of the bag but you aren't getting anywhere near any level of vacuum comparable to any electric vacuum sealing machine

MAD Science Hacks. because a commercial vacuum chamber sealer with a 1/4 horsepower motor takes 40 seconds to a minute to do almost absolute vacuum on food packages. you are not getting anywhere close to that . Do a follow up and put a vacuum gauge in a bag and seal it the same way that is being done here. I would be surprised if the needles moves much.
@MadScienceHacksTV
@MadScienceHacksTV 7 жыл бұрын
The point of this is to not compare it to a commercial grade vacuum sealer. This is homemade - keep that in mind. It performs exceptionally well for what it costs to make it. It's pretty close to a 100% vacuum. Build it and test it and come back to me. Hundreds of people have made this with success. There's no need to prove the concept, let alone compare a syringe to a motor-driven vacuum pump.
@stephenhumble7627
@stephenhumble7627 7 жыл бұрын
My estimate of the vacuum of the syringe method is it should easy manage to get pressure below 0.4 bar ( similar to immersing the bag under water 6 meters ) - maybe not as good as a motorised unit but this manual pump method does not require any power and is cheap which is an advantage.

Okay. I think I've been through this before with other people over at instructables and a few other places. To use the water method ,and achieve the same quality of vacuum, you'd need to A - Place the bag at a ridiculous depth to take advantage of the water pressure required and B - have a large enough container for such a large amount of water. Any other method that requires a pot or bowl of water will not remove close to enough air as a true vacuum.
