I thought I read you can remove a pump from a fridge to drive a DIY veneer press. Any info on how to do this pump removal? I have a fridge about to go to scrap that has a perfectly good running pump on it. Anybody removed this pump before?

As you can see from Per's link, it will work. The limitation will be how much air you can move in a given period of time (CFM). With a very small pump and a larger vacuum bag, it might take a while to pull all of the air out and draw sufficient a vacuum.
