Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison
I seem to remember someone once talking about using his small air-brush compressor's intake port.(Mine doesn't have anything accessible to test)Next time I put together a vacuum table, I have the vacuum unit from my old Agfa camera.
You could pick up a squirrel cage blower and hook the inlet to the pallet. It will be quiet and depending on the size should be strong enough to work. Or pick up one of those dust collectors at Harbor Freight for under $200, throw the bags out and use the blower partWhat you are looking for is a regenerative blower.

The agfa camera vacuum pump sounds interesting, I googled it but don't know what I should be looking for or at.. More info please Mr frog..
