I bought Thurston's book and was wondering about what kind of tanks can be used. When he says hot water tank is he referring to the tanks used in households? or will these work anyways? Those tanks are huge compared to the tank he has in the books pictures. I have access to two tanks, 30 gallon each i believe, that could be used in a vacuum table i hope to build. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Look for a used hot water tank. The kind found in hot water heaters. 30 gallon is penty. much larger will be a big tank, take longer to evacuate, and cost more. Check with your local plumber, and see if he has any old hot water heaters!
