Re: Suction as a method for possessing balls

Has anyone considered drawing a vacuum using a pneumatic piston? I would think the suction force from the piston would be much greater than from a shop vac. Down side is that if you have a small leak, once the piston reaches the end of it's stroke, you've lost your suction.

Just a thought that I want to tryout myself.
