I have some knowledge and experience with high vacuum and ultrahigh vacuum systems, and would happy to help with advice,troubleshooting, etc., if you find some equipment and decide to set it up at your place.

I have no idea how hard it is to find replacement guns, however.
Will do. I know a couple of scrappers in the LA area that will let me know if any of that equipment comes through... but I'd MUCH rather find something local. Don't want to think about the logistics of moving all that stuff over such a long distance but you never know...

Be happy to work with you if and when the time comes. :) Likewise, if somehow you pick up something, let me know!
