My students have made a number of these. It is the second favorite event in our annual Physics Olympics. The usual plan is to cut a 3-4 ft diameter circle from plywood and then put heavy duty building plastic on the base to hold the air. We then cut holes in the plastic. Cut a hole in the plywood for the nozzle, insert, turn on vac and away you go. Experiment with hole size in plastic. Let me know if you need more info.
