Installing the new spray booth today, this area is external to the layout area, it’s right near the main roller door entrance so will have good ventilation. The base board in the booth is just 8mm MDF board, the table is also height adjustable.

Both booths are vented to the outside of the shed via plastic plumbing pipe. I’ll have weather & bug caps for blocking the openings when not in use.

The workshop compressor will be stored underneath and pipe work plumbed to the filter & water trap which will be attached to the table top.

I like your internal LED

I like your internal LED lighting covering all sides of the item to be painted. What exhaust fan units did you decide to use?

Hi Rick...

It was based off these units on eBay, I purchased mine from a online source here in Australia.

There are quite a few different sources on eBay in the USA.

Spray Booth ready to go...

Finished installing the compressor, regulator & airline for the spray booth today.

The compressor does all of the layout & workshop duties so needed to have all 1/4” quick connect fittings.

At a later date I’ll be adding a second regulator for running two airbrushes at once. Comes in very handy when weathering...

Very nice! This is inspiring

Very nice! This is inspiring and something I would like to do.

For now I have a temp station for spraying that I just set up today. Will probably be moving again in the late spring or early summer. Your thread is a keeper.

New Paint Bottle Shelving...

Shelving arrived today for my paint storage rack, absolutely perfect for storing SMS Paint bottles, only one I couldn’t fit was the premium thinner, also got the majority of my Polly Scale bottles in too.
