What's up Chuck? Sorry...couldn't resist!
I built my own spray booth out of cheap wood I got at a local home goods store, I think Home Depot. I used this stuff that was overed in white, like shelving. I just installed a bathroom fan in the rear and put a screen filter in front of the fan. I also have dryer ducting going from the fan assembly to a piece of wood to put in the window to exit the odor. Then I installed a light under the top panel near the front, and I also installed a power strip to plug everything in.
I've only used it a few times so far, but seems to work okay, you just have to make sure you make good connections for the ducting so you don't get blasted by smelly odors.
Only problem is...its kinda heavy, you could probably make it with lighter materials though. After looking at the prices of some of those booths I decided I could make it cheaper.
HtH, Paul |
