Hello I am trying to build an economical form of vacuum filtration and now I have gotten as far as enquiring a vacuum pump for my setup witch consists
of a 1l vacuum filtering flask, rubber stopper and a buchner funnel.

I don't think that would work very well at really low pressures but yes, that would work if you don't care about how fast your filtering goes. Another
option that is much more economical would be a water aspirator. You can also get hand pumps at some places but they usually aren't that good.
