Can a vacuum press be used for flooring inlays and medallions?

Yes. I’ve helped several inlay and medallion craftsmen build a frame press system for this purpose. Since some species of wood used for flooring are porous, air will leak into the system. If you have a cycling vacuum press such as the Project: V2 or EVS system, you can easily wire in a switch to convert it to run continuously. See FAQ E10 for details.
