vinylrecorder vacuum pump

This is where record cutters raise questions about cutting, and trade wisdom and experiment results. We love Scully, Neumann, Presto, & Rek-O-Kut lathes and Wilcox-Gay Recordios (among others). We are excited by the various modern pro and semi-pro systems, too, in production and development. We use strange, extinct disc-based dictation machines. And other stuff, too.

I've been grappling with this for years now, figured I'd mention that any advertisement I've seen for "the quietest vacuum" is never true.
every vacuum is more than loud, and would need to be put in another room to have fair isolation for cutting.

Cheers guys, those pumps looks great but are way out of my budget, btw, souri sells one for 465 euros, anybody knows what model is it?
I ended up buying the same vacuum cleaner of ebay for 70 euros while i'll figure a better solution
Cheers
