Making a Paint Booth

[@AlegriaFishing]

As soon as I saw your first video I immediately told me that you must be a person with a lot of imagination, I will start following your work today, big hugs from Portugal 🤜🤛

[@SplishSplashFishing]

Thanks Alegria. I guess that I do have a lot of imagination, and just love to share it with you all.

[@SuperKabookie]

I think I might be jealous now!!! Lol u r very handy! Nice work on your work room! It looks great!

[@SplishSplashFishing]

It sure is great :D

[@TheAndred1]

Brilliant

[@tfisher5685]

Nice work, thank you for the share

[@ei8htupindustries715]

Do you have a parts list for the Ventilation system? Do you have measurements for your cabinet as well?

[@SplishSplashFishing]

Sorry, I don't have a parts list, as I thought it would be hard to find items that were available all over the world. Also the cabinet would have to fit you workspace rather than what fits mine.

[@richard16372]

Very nice job my friend.

[@JamieMcClanahan]

Love the build and you lures as a retired autobody painter and lure painter I would suggest a air inlet on the left side with the same filter more for when your curing epoxy so as not to have dust particles pull though the plexiglass hope this helps .

[@SplishSplashFishing]

A very good point - You are of cause right that dust would be sucked in through every crack and onto the nearest lure. A filtered inlet would be much better - Thanks

[@brianclark2119]

Jamie that's a very good point! As an auto paint and equipment salesman I have seen many paint jobs suffer dust issues in paint booths that were turned into huge vacuum cleaner bags when intake and exhaust air volumes were not filtered or balanced, clogged intake filters or exhaust filters will upset this balance. I might even suggest additional filtered air area to keep the booth from sucking dust in around any openings. Also any solvents not successfully vented can settle back on the fresh paint and diminish the gloss. Too much air flow can cause paint surfaces to surface dry to quickly and trap solvents between the paint and surface weakening bonds and that is why a balanced airflow should be the goal. This project shows great planning and design I wish him the success he seeks.

Hi, nice video. What the CFM of this fan?

[@IcarusIcarus76]

Fantastic and inspired construction !!!! Hope you to use it and enjoy it a lot !!!!

[@gaboaaa23]

why didnt youve made a glow box for it to ensure dust free painting?

[@grahamh1967]

Nice one, now lets see You use it! Great job Im sure You will make amendments as & when You need to but it seems Good to Me. Thanks for sharing, Graham.

[@SplishSplashFishing]

Thanks - You can see it in action in the next Luremaking Hour

[@grahamh1967]

I look forward to watching it, Cheers

[@rustyul]

I know I'm over a year late to the party, but I just wanted to share that the word for the fasteners that you didn't know the English name for: staples. Pronounced - Stay-pulls. Nice build. I think this is just what I need to build for the size of my projects!

[@SplishSplashFishing]

Thanks - I'll try to remember for the next time

[@tiagoaquino1921]

Good morning, great video! Is it possible to pass the measurements of your painting cabinet?

[@SplishSplashFishing]

Sorry for the late reply - Thought that I still had the original drawing somewhere, but it is gone. My cabinet is 100 cm wide, 95 cm high and 60 cm deep

[@sub-arts128]

looks very nice. what performance is your ventilator?

[@SplishSplashFishing]

thanks. It moves 388 m3/h which is plenty for my use. I rarely run it over 50%

[@sub-arts128]

@@SplishSplashFishing thanks for answer. i think of a 185 m3/h ventilator. but i dont know, if its ok for my needs. i will need it mainly when plane candy spraying with airbrush (0.4 nozzle), maybe minijet. what gun do you use?

[@SplishSplashFishing]

I usually have half of the opening closed with a glass plate - this will increase suction from the area you sit

[@johnfulwider7510]

What type of ventilation system are you using? I’m assuming that you have it in another room.

[@SplishSplashFishing]

Im not sure I know the correct engllish work, but it's what they call a Channel Fan, and you are right, it is in the next room. On my booth, I have a regulator that can turn on/off and adjust the speed. Works very well.

[@gerardfaulk808]

I hate to say this, but you would have better ventilation if you made your suction system twice maybe three times larger. I did that to mine, by using a suction motor with a 20x16 filter. It works great for a 4 foot by 3 foot spray booth.

[@SplishSplashFishing]

For sure it would move more air. But I must say that with this, it actually seems to work quite fine. Just keeping the open area you sit in, reduced to about half - Which is fine for airbrushing

[@Melanzyk]

Cool project. I'm making something simillar 2,5 years :D I mean, I bought aluminium vent pipe, fan and other stuff but never got a chance to do it :(

[@SplishSplashFishing]

Well I just wanted to make "good solutions" for the new shed, so this seemed like a good idea, and now that it's finished, I'm so happy about it. You should really take your time to "finish" it

[@bartosz261]

Champion :)

[@UPTHETOWN]

That looks good Hope you're not sucking paint fumes through an ordinary fan though

[@SplishSplashFishing]

They are - But I'm only using waterbased paint in the booth to be sure that electrical sparks and flameable vapour is not combined - If that was what you were thinking of

[@СЕРГЕЙСОБОЛЕВСКИЙ.Воблерыручно]

Молодец серьёзно подошёл к мастерской .

[@SplishSplashFishing]

Thank you - Had to use Google translate on this :P

[@parrot0051]

Turn off that music and let's hear how noisy that motor is in the spray booth.

[@nicolasandersen7574]

Du lyder dansk

[@SplishSplashFishing]

Ja det er der en åbentlys årsag til :D

[@cathedralImages]

What's the dimensions of the booth ?

[@SplishSplashFishing]

Not sure - 60 cm deep and 80-90 cm wide I think
