Brad Nailer Compressor for Vacuum?

Hello,

I have a general question regarding vacuum purging for BHO. I am considering buying a vacuum chamber such as (http://rotokinetics.com/products/vacuumchambers/vc200). I am considering purchasing it with a pump, but I have a pump/compressor that came with my brad nailer. The compressor says it has "Max PSI 110" but the compressor tank is very small. Would this be sufficient to purge BHO without buying another pump? It appears most combos come with a pump, but no compressor tank. Thanks :)

A compressor is made to squeeze air, not suck it.
To convert the intake into a vacuum pump would probably cause you more headache and expenditure than it's worth, since you're asking the question.

All compressors are also vacuum pumps, but not necessarily a very good one. You need something that will pull down below -29" and the brad nailer compressor won't.
