You should get a Newell , those things can suck the liquid out of a piece of meat in 3 minutes.

Bob,,,,,ferreal......just use your oven...place meat on racks none touching, open door just ajar and place a wooden spoon in it to keep from closing and slowly turn on oven till the light just comes on.......9 hours later ....VOILA! jerky !!!!!!!!!!
