Vladimir,

What thickness can the bell chamber be (not the base plate)? I
would like to use the thinnest possible bell jar so I can save weight and
money.

It might be easier to answer the question ¡§why is the sky blue¡§ - - (really!!!!!!!!!!!).
Your thickness will also depend upon your design parameters (maximum vacuum needed), process(es) used etc.
You can make a bell jar quite thin if you use reinforcing ribs effectively. If you don?t want any ribs it will be quite a bit thicker.
So - - over to you - - what are your design parameters and what can you do (or get done) (welding/machining/scrounging etc )?
