That's one of the smartest build I have seen in my whole 13yr guitar making life.

[@AugmentGuitars]

Thank you!! It’s been serving me well.

I've been working for a custom shop guitar company for the last 5 years but we are closing shop so I'm finishing all the rest of the guitars that I was in the process of building so am building a spray booth in my shop. I went from a 12'x16' paint booth but don't have room for that so this is my inspiration for my future booth

[@AugmentGuitars]

Let me know if you need any dimensions or help along the way! This worked out pretty great. I am going to make a third video with the pros/cons of the booth. One thing I will mention is that I need to find a better solution to filter the air in the workshop. Keep getting stray dust/fibers in my finish if I leave the fan on too long after spraying...

[@AugmentGuitars]

I have an air filter in the shop that does a decent job but maybe I need something else lol

[@Brkprsn]

This is super useful and comprehensive. I never even thought of making a smaller spray booth for refinishing. Thanks!

[@AugmentGuitars]

Happy to help Harold! 😊

[@GIANlikesNEON]

Dude this is so epic!

[@AugmentGuitars]

Thanks brother!!! ❤️

[@steelerfox]

looking forward to part 2

[@AugmentGuitars]

Hopefully I can get in the shop and spray some builds! Been busy with the holidays and what not... lol!

[@jimfenton962]

This is really helpful! You mention building a different version of a guitar holder for neck thru's. Have you done any work on that?

[@AugmentGuitars]

Happy to help! I haven't gotten around to it actually... I've mainly sprayed bolt on construction guitars. Might not be in the next video but maybe the one after that!

[@milhouse75]

damn i really wanted to see how the ducting for the fan worked - I just got a 10" vevor and am trying to figure out how to make custom ducts

[@AugmentGuitars]

Send me an email! I can send you some photos and give you some guidance if need be. 😊

[@Jesters_Symphony]

Awesome build! I am using your build as inspiration for my own booth. I have a question on the fan. Is it powerful enough? Or maybe too powerful? Does it have multiple speed settings? Thanks for a great video!

[@AugmentGuitars]

Thanks a bunch! The fan has been great so far. Plenty of power and it doesn’t seem like overkill. In the next episode I will show the draw from the primary filter. Sucks all the fumes out! It unfortunately doesn’t have any speed settings. Just on and off lol!

[@AugmentGuitars]

Feel free to reach out if you need any help along the way

Great videos and really enjoying them. I have a 2 ft deep workbench and want to do little spray booth on it similar to your great one.. is it enough depth???

[@AugmentGuitars]

Thanks for watching! Honestly.... I wish I had a little more depth with this build so I think 3 ft. is the minimum. I wish I would have pushed the filter back a few more inches to give me more clearance for offset/large bodies. You could make a new top for your workbench and extend it to 3-3.5 ft. towards the front of the booth. Might work out that way!

[@davidoreilly6717]

The only measurement I didn’t see on the video is the depth of the actual spray area?? Still a fine video and well done!

[@AugmentGuitars]

Whoops! I’ll measure it tomorrow and put it in the comments sections

[@Bama5150RT]

what happened to Part 2? thanks!

[@AugmentGuitars]

Time got away from me lol! I am actually editing the second part of the build now. It focuses around the guitar work piece holder I built. Sorry for the delay!

[@Bama5150RT]

No worries. Glad you're still at it. Looking forward to more content
