Default Where can I buy a vacuum table?

For some reason, I cannot find a vacuum table/platen for screen printing on transfer paper. Can someone please point me in the right direction?

Thanks for answering my silly question. I searched "Vacuum Pallet" instead of "Vacuum Table" and found a few suppliers. Man, those things are pricey!

I can manage building the box. I wouldn't want to use a shop-vac though for the suction (way too noisy). I'm wondering if the motor out of a cheap air hockey table would work.

Have you seen any plans around?

Check ebay for plans. They have them for rotary engravers should have them for this.
