vac-sys how to clamp small objects?

[richk]

I have the full set of vac-sys suction heads but even the smallest head is still too big to get suction on my workpiece.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how gerry-rig this to work?

Thanks in advance for your help.

How about this?  Should be easy to adapt to the Festool pump.

Depending on what it is and what you're doing to it...

Just drill a hole in any non-pourous material, like melamine or something, and use it as a gasket between your workpiece and the clamp.
