Vacuum chamber part two
Now that the base plate and the chamber are done I need to make the connection between them vacuum-proof. To do it I choose one of my favorite material the acetic silicone join, it is easy to work with, totally vacuum-proof. The hard part of join making is to make an even join but no that thick. If it is the pressure the chamber edge on join will cut it. The total pressure exerted on the chamber edge is about 10 tons, quite huge! :) .

| Finish join |
The join you can see above have been cut apart a few time later and replace by a thinner one.
Once the join was finish I've solder the connection port to the vacuum chamber.
