A vacuum pump is just an air pump that you use for sucking rather than blowing. You can convert an old-fashioned "floor pump" ("bike pump") into a vacuum pump that can take over 75 percent of the air out of something.

WOODWEB's WOODnetWORK Forum - Message ... I'm trying to set up a vacuum bag system cheaply and have an old electric air compressor with a 1/2 hp motor fly-wheeled to a single piston. Would such a pump have anywhere near the power to create 1 atm. of suction assuming I rig it up properly with bag/fittings/seals?

A vacuum pump is just an air pump, like a compressor, where you use the input side for suction, rather than using the output side for blowing. Many air compressors make good vacuum pumps if you can find the air intake, enclose it, and attach an appropriate hose or fitting.
