Hi, I've bought vacuum table like this, only slightly bigger, around 400x300mm, but I don't have vacuum pump so I wonder which one would be good for aluminum plates 15-20mm in thickness and if there is some tutorial on how to connect this table to that pump, I mean, which things need to be looked after when you mount it to the table etc.

I've never used vac table before, only standard clamps and vices so this is all new to me.
