Gasket

The gasket is simply silicone poured into the channel designed in the base. I used Smooth-On OOMOO 25 which worked great. Pour slow in a thin stream to prevent many air bubbles. OOMOO 25 can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01C4YQ4TU/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Glass Cloche (glass top) Any container around 7"-8.5" in diameter that is suitable for vacuum will be fine. I used a glass cloche I found on Amazon found here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0797GVSXJ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHEN USING ANY GLASS AS A VACUUM CHAMBER, FOR OBVIOUS REASONS. That being said, the one purchased on amazon has easily been holding 30hg of vacuum and its very thick glass. Pressure Gauge The one I used can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006VE306A/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Although any 1/4" NPT pressure gauge will work fine. When installing, I put a little dab of silicone on the threads to be sure it wouldn't leak. I'm not 100% that this was necessary. Vacuum pump (if you dont have one already) Here's the vacuum pump I'm using: https://www.ebay.com/itm/3-5-CFM-Rotary-Vane-Vacuum-Pump-1-4HP-HVAC-R134a-Air-Refrigerant-Conditioning/131845616776?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 I am using vinyl tubing that is 1/4" OD x 1/8" ID which requires no fittings to plug into the base, it should be a very snug fit. In order to connect the vinyl tubing to the vacuum pump, I recommend these fittings: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00YGR12R8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
