I thought id post some pics of the "home-made" paint booth since im getting very close to the end of my project and ill have to take her down so I can finish mudding/taping/painting the garage walls.
Notice the sign on the door " keep out Shawna (my girlfirend) no boneheads allowed" I got smacked for writing that but she knows i like to pick on her
If you notice its i built it in the 3rd stall of my garage (the stall with the window obviously) i took and old shop fan which i mounted in the window-and i taped some papertowels over the motor to prevent fumes from blowing me up- even though i dont think it would be possible unless I was continously spraying something for 3 hours. But whatever safety first right???
I built the booth before I mud/tape/painted the garage so i could fill all the holes in from the wood. the base around the floor is just wood furring srips from the hardware store "rolled up" in the excess 4 mil plastic and stapled. The door is just a cut out with a "overhang" and I pull it tight over two 3'' wood screws bent slightly away from the door.
Worked great theres also a filter between the window and the fan so that Fumes excess paint or gunk doesnt come out and get on the house or stink up the neighbor hood.
Hopefully this will give someone an idea on what they can build-- I built this alone and it cost under 100.00. Enjoy
Oh and thats Marty hes in charge of "stable security"
