Album info

After seeing someone else make one i got around to making a spray painting booth to contain the paint and fumes!
Used a 90 litre storage tub with the bottom cut out to install a 200mm kitchen exhaust fan. Used a dremel to do this as the plastic on these tubs is a little brittle and can crack easy.
Also installed a compact 13W fluoro swivel head light in the top that I can adjust the angle of to give great lighting while painting.
Only took a couple of hours and the fan and light were pre wired with wall plugs so anyone can do this without much trouble.
I will place a filter over the fan to stop all the paint from collecting on the fan.
Total cost was about $60 (Tub $16, Fan $20, Light $24)
I also brought two glass lazy susan turntables one 25cm and one 35cm these have a ball bearing hub and move very smoothly to rotate items being worked on they were $10 and $15 each.
So next weekend i'll blast some paint on the RAAF F-35 I've started to build! 🙂
