Are you powering your vacuum/impeller assembly 1:1 with an FP motor?

As far as I can tell from the picture, it looks to be a centrifugal impeller system. The FP is just being used to spin a little metal disk like the one you'd find in your shop vac. It's a low torque, high speed application that's perfect for the FP. 1771 and 190 built similar systems in 2008.

Um, don't take this the wrong way, but that looks like it really sucks. I mean that in a good way.

What are the suction-cup type devices you're using to make the seal with the ball on the sucker?
