Hello, I am also looking into buying a vacuum pump for my first build. I have access to a 2.5 cfm US General vacuup pump. Would this work or would I need something stronger?

ive read a post somewhere on this site(cant remember which) that said 2.5cfm should be about the lowest, but will work. it will take longer to completely evacuate the air from the bag as was said earlier in this thread
