I built one with a cheaper fan off amazon and a big sterilte storage bin. The filter fits over the entire back and the clear box means I can light it from the outside. I like yours more, but I didn't have the space or willpower to make furniture lol. That said, I think I spent about $40 dollars total.
Don't know if you've figured out what your going to do yet with the vent pipes but a furnco coupling would work. Might need to paint the brackets so they aren't obnoxious, added benefit of a furnco is that you could bend up the left over metal band and put a screw through it for wall mounting. That said.... 3d printing fumes really aren't that bad, but i guess if you got the vent already might as well use it!
Wow this is kind of cool I just realized I live about four hours away from you.I've also spent the last week or so working on a spray booth for into put into my office.my design is relatively similar on using a Amazon inline fan ducting for the time being as I'm just starting out it is only going through the window in my office.the biggest change is that because I already have a table set up buying just sits on top of my desk and is made of corrugated plastic which is a very sturdy material that's light.I wanted it to be semi-permanent I wanted to be able to stand there and Beyond and used for in general but if the time arises to use this room for something else I wanted to be able to pick it up and move it. Using corrugated plastic infor this project made it collapsible yet big and sturdy.my biggest concern that I have to overcome is actually getting a decent elbow for the ducting that I have. I live in a small town just over the Manitoba border into
I was really waiting for "now that I have the booth constructed, I'm going to give it a thorough coating in black mod podge and finish it with a black wash"
Fantastic video! I've never really liked those collapsible spray booths and I think this is a great alternative. Also, as a side note, I really love that you edited the timing of your nail gun with the music. Those are the kind of subtle details that make me love certain videos. Great job!
Instead of the peg board as a pre-filter I would suggest getting some canvas from the fabric store and just push pin in up, and replace when to paint clogged. a pretty simple and easy change. and has enough holes to allow for air flow.
@@GuyTayler Actually I think you are right. that is what I use. I use the canvas as a base it just has to have good holes to let air go through it. I just went to a fabric store and got the cheapest fabric I could. . mine has a funny ugly pattern on it but it doesnt matter it gets painted just like white would!
Nice solid build. I built a similar setup for my wife who airbrushes a lot of custom paint jobs on model horses (Breyers, Peter Stone, etc). The only thing I'd suggest doing differently with your setup is building in a way to space the air filter a couple inches out from the back of the spray booth. Doing this creates a plenum that allows a better suction across the entire area of the filter. As your design is right now, only the portion of the filter that is directly in front of the vent hood is actually catching particulates from the painting. Spacing it out those two inches (really could just be an inch and a half, or even one inch), will make the whole system work a lot more efficiently. My wife airbrushes a crap-ton more paint than a typical gaming modeler would, at least in terms of paint volume. I made her booth so it could take a 20x20x1 filter and it takes LONG time before it gets clogged enough for it to need changing. I really dig the use of the LED strip light as well. Did you get daylight color balanced lights (5000k plus)?
Even when they are not about minis, your videos are great. The booth turned out great, and I can't wait to see it in use.

We love to see , that you are a full-time Content Creator now and we love that Airbrush Booth too. Maybe we build one too :) Greetings from Germany Würfelglück
Sweet build! And to the ones wondering about the fans rated to use with spray paint. Yup, an explosion proof inline exhaust fan starts at like $900 US (And that's for a bog standard model for regular large ductworks not smaller ducts).
I've been waiting for this video ever since you mentioned it! I need to build one... Now I just need to figure out how to get around my block walls to vent it. I'll probably have to vent through a hose up into the attic and then through the roof.
You can always vent out a window. You basically use something in your window kind of like what the floor AC units use for intake, except you'd be using it for exhaust. Depending on where in your house your booth is, venting up through the attic is a long way to go from the source of air, plus it is always best to avoid adding holes to a roof. There are also drill bits made specifically for cutting through mason block, as well as various other techniques for getting through block walls. Here is an example, ruclips.net/video/tt_jkWeRJa4/видео.html, but it is easy to find many other places it is talked about on the internet.
This is by far the best DIY booth I've seen on here. Glad I found this video. This is definitely the design I'll be copying to build mine, though I will also be adding a removable front cover to really help keep it clean inside when it goes months without use. Thanks for the inspiration to finally get building!
Did the same thing as you but with a stove hood fan mounted to the top of an old black TV/DVD stand for the box section. Has worked great for years. It's big enough and has built in two speed fan and light switches. I have a sheet of plexiglass that folds down to cover the top half of the front opening with the bottom half open to put my hands in to airbrush. The plexiglas helps with increasing the fan suction and decrease fumes or paint leaving the booth and offers some protection from breathing in fumes/paint when doing close up detailed work. You can also close the two glass doors on the front of the TV stand to prevent dust getting in while projects dry. Only paid $40 CND for the hood fan new from home depot and some wiring and a plug to plug into the wall so the cost of the the total build was around $70. Its rated at about 210cfm so it does the job. I also use a lazy susan turn table from ikea that was about $12. I use cheap furnace filers that I cut to size for the hood fan. All in all it's worked out well and is very inexpensive.
I got so excited when I saw this update! AT LAST! Congrats, it looks wonderful! Also, mad respect for your dark aesthetic. I love me some black, and I can really understand and appreciate why you stick to it so stalwartly. BECAUSE IT LOOKS GOOD!
This inspired me to make my own spray booth. I kinda modeled it after yours, but made it all out of spare ABS. Thank you for all of the inspiration you always provide!
Good call on the inline fan being an issue with combustible aerosols. I am doing a similar setup for resin printing... didnt think about the fan for venting isopropyl...
I know this is old, but if you wanted to use a baffle to save your filter, you could use that blue aquarium roll stuff over your filter. With the added bonus that you can remove it and clean it, put it back in.
Hello! Thanks for filming this video. I am building my own spray booth as well for airbrushing and was trying use some other fans and power supplies and LED lights. after viewing your video I was able to rationalize the purchase of the inline fane and the LED lights with power, both of which simply plug into an outlet. Turns out the inline fan is going to be 15% more powerful than the industrial computer fan I was going to use and the led lights are install ready. Venting is not an issue because I am going to be spraying next to a window so the venting was never an issue. Thanks so much for the informative video and you sure changed my mind!
I am new to airbrushing but was inspired by your spray booth build but not as sturdy. I bought the exact inline fan and since my workspace is in the basement, I was able to vent through half of the 14" x 36" double window (bug screen side) and insulated with Masonite and 2" styrafoam sandwich. the biggest problem was fitting the 4" aluminum flex duct onto the original cheap damper which was also 4". sent it back to Amazon and paid more for a better damper and had less of a problem to put it all together. thanks again for a well presented video
I made one a few weeks ago out of a bathroom vanity cast off from renovation. The actual spray area is a lot smaller but boy it's nice having a dedicated space for airbrushing.
Thanks for sharing this - with your background in construction, I needed to see your take. I’ve been debating ventilating through the roof vent in my garage, but through the wall seems like the way to go. I have a tandem for my resin printer too - the wife appreciates having the stink out of the house haha..
lol thought the same thing... honestly I would print them and ship them if @ Black Magic Craft needs em (need the dimensions)). I have a Prusa MK3 and a Photon.
Amazing video Jeremy! That setup is ridiculously cool and I hope you get awesome use out of it. I spend a lot of time on my computer both for gaming or hanging out, and also working, and finding your channel has been a big inspiration to get into crafting, and more into building things with my hands, so thank you for providing that. Cheers!
Brilliant job Sir. very informative, especially with regards to the fan, and the potential risk factor. I personally haven't seen another video, which brings this very important issue to light. Also like the fact you post links to the items in other countries too. 10/10
Wow, it was no joke, I heard you guys had to declare a state of emergency so they could divert more power from Hydro to you. Hope you're fine man! Having no power multiple days is no fun! The weather had a pretty weird pattern going on the last few weeks. Wish you well!!!
There’s still a few thousand poles and a couple hundred towers down. Lots of people without power throughout the province. Red Cross is involved. No deaths as far as I know thankfully.
This is an awesome build! I'm going to try and do something similar when I build mine. I also wanted to mention a feature I saw on a spray booth I worked with when I worked at Rockwell Collins that I had never thought of, but thought it was a nice feature to add. There was a pressure gauge that told you how much vacuum was being pulled between the fan and the filter, and that was to tell you when you needed to replace the filter. This was to preserve the fan, and if you're going to be using the booth often, then it'll probably be a useful feature to add.
I've found that I just vacuum my sponge filters, you'd be amazed to see how well it works. The paint is dry by the time it hits the filter so it's effectively just dust. Nice build :]
Thanks for the tips, just got the same type of in line fan for the enclosure I'm building for my first 3D printer. Thanks for all the content and knowledge shared, cheers!
Today I picked up my first-ever (after over a year) XPS foam, instead of crafting with foamboard and Styrofoam. Looking forward to making stuff with it.
I think it is awesome that we use the same tools for .building non mini stuff. I am starting my finish of my basement and looking at a lot of what you do for ideas.
OK. Comment #1: Love the old school AD&D & D&D books and boxes. #2. Not sure about the printing shake, but I can see it being a thing, although I think more of a thing with an FDM machine. better to be safe than sorry. #3 Snow like that when the trees can still collect it in the leaves SUCKS, we had a SINGLE DAY like that a couple years back in Calgary, can't imagine the damage multiple days would do. #4 nice and simple despite it's more permanent set-up, especially using the full-size cut pieces of MDF.
I'm pretty sure I WILL end up putting the printer on top. It's fairly stable, but I decided I'll just screw the side of the booth directly to my work bench, which is bolted to the wall. This will eliminate basically all risk of bumps/shake issues.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial I guess if the resin is shaking from side to side a little as it cures through the UV light it might cause issues. Made a decision on the machine you want yet? :)
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial I can't wait to see what printer you choose. Elegoo Mars? Or perhaps someone sent you that new Phrozen beast-of-a-printer to review?
Cool build. You could use an in-line charcoal and/or HEPA filter. Then you don’t have to vent it outside (great if you don’t own the place you live in, ie apartment or rental) or you just don’t want to drill holes through your wall. And..... you really should go ahead and pony up for a “non-sparking”/brushless fan (I’ve found some for about $75-$380 USD depending on the flow rate & size you want). Even though the charcoal & HEPA should eliminate fire risk if it’s before the fan.
I have the same exact setup I did in my house. I have an inline fan and hoses connecting my spray booth and 3D Printers. For the Y I had the same exact thing as you. I used E6000 to glue the blast gates to the Y and black masking tape to hold it in place as it dries. I was concerned it wouldn't hold because you're right, it takes a lot of force to open the gates but after a few months of usage it held up just fine.
Basically you just butt joined the two pieces with glue? That actually would probably work. I'm not sure if the parts are PVC, but if they are plumbers PVC glue might be enough for that sort of connection as it "welds" the pvc. Thanks for the tip, for some reason I didn't really think about going that route because it seems so vulnerable.
I know this is an old video but wanted to thank you for the inspiration just built mine today pretty similarly to yours. Same fan and all, used a carbon filter and plywood instead
Well thanks to your words of encouragement i am about to mog podge my first build and paint it so im excited to see how it turns out its amazing how one idea can turn into several
Excellent timing i have been scrouring the net looking at what people do. Also, I would Put some clear tape on the lights so you can peel it off if stray paint frosts them up. Keep it up, i love your work
Looks great! I wish I owned a house so I could build in a paint booth too. QUESTION: how well does it work? Does the suction going up work as well as going back? I doubt it should make a difference, but I'm curious if it does.
I havn't had a chance to use it much yet, but I can say in my testing with the airbrush no overspray makes it out of the booth. I will still be wearing a mask as working that close you can still breathe in some of the dust, but I feel confident it won't spread out into my workspace in any noticeable way. In terms of smells it seems to be quite effective. Trying the Citadel primer in it (which is the worst smelling paint I own) it reduces the smell in the room significantly, and over a short period of time (several minutes) completely. The whole system works even better if you crack a window to bring in fresh air and negate the negative pressure from the draw. A 200+ CFM fan can quickly cause negative pressure and chimney backdraft issues if left running for long periods with no source of air intake to make up the difference. Over all I think the design and fan I chose were a success and at this point wouldn't do it any different. Perhaps after more use I will find things that could be improved.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial I would suggest a follow-up video in the future to discuss how it has worked out for you in general, after a while of use of course.
Thanks for the great idea for a exhaust booth. Building one of these will alleviate issues caused by smelly chemical smells that stick to everything. Again great idea KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO
That is exactly the paint booth that I want to build. The sise is perfect and I thought the same for the blower, but I will add a fan behind the booth, so all the the toxic vapor goes through. the different is that I will use and other material. Theyr are kind of dark brown 1/4 inch which I don't know how we call that.
Nice. I built mine out of reclaimed particle board, an old dryer vent hose, a reclaimed lamp, two reclaimed switches, a reclaimed outlet, and the only brand new item was the direct drive fan. It was pretty fun building it and getting it to work.
I would mount the baffle against the lower corner in the paint area and the front corner of the angle above. All you would need then are magnetic cabinet door latches to keep it from falling out.
I would think two separate systems. The reason being is that you wouldn't want any sanding dust residue left to get into your paint or get onto the object being painted.
Great video! Very easy to understand. Best of tones of videos on how to build a spray both. Quick question what set up or Airbrush holder did you get? Looks convenience. 👍🏽 Thank You
Great looking spray booth. For those thinking of doing one them selves, some suggestions. Keep the run as short as possible, and avoid the use of flex hose. Opt for rigid metal pipe. Flex hose cause turbulance and reduces the effectiveness. Also keep the number of offsets (elbows) to a minimum. Instead of 90 s try to use 45 s. Don t use the Filtreat filters, I use cheap fibre glass filters (package of 3 fo 5-6 dollars.
I like your video and your spray booth, it came out great. One suggestion your filter, I would have build a filter box on the outside before the square to round first that way you can slide the filter in and out. then put a screen on the inside of the filter hole.
Talks about cutting hole in wall avoiding stuff - i look at my brick walls and remember having to hire a core drill to fit outlet for clothes drier....
I've been meaning to watch this video for some time now, and am glad I finally did. It looks great, and from what I can tell, it works just as great as it looks. One question: What is holding the filter in place?
You could use a boat bilge ventilation fan.. They come in inline config and I would think they would be spark proof, especially the ones used for gasoline engine housing ventilation.
Awesome video! Man, you did some slick editing in this one! I loved the way you timed your tools like the nailgun with the beats in your music. I know you did it with multiple things, but that's the one that stuck in my mind. Great job on that fantastic build- the spray ooth looks amazing!
I'm using AC Infinity Cloudline fans for another project. They're amazing! Super quiet and energy efficient, and they push a lot of air. Getting an airbrush and spray booth are on my to-do list. Along with a lot of other projects.
Thanks for the video, that was awesome! How has the filter changing been? How often, and how difficult? I was thinking I would build it with clips to hold the filter instead of the double stick. Thanks for the video, that was awesome!
I still LOVE this BUILD, I need one in my craft room for my own stuff, but mine needs to be a bit smaller.. Hmm.. Pencil to Paper time! THANKS FOR THE GREAT IDEAS!! !! : )
Great clarifying video. Some recommendations: - to install a small lip on the sides around the “mouth” what would keep the light inside without blinding you. - Also, paint an off white on the walls and ceiling and a darker gray on the floor but not bright white, it’s more soothing to the eyes and gives you a better notion of the colors you’re painting with without light bouncing back on your face so hard and getting your eyes confused. - the filter must take the most possible area on the back and if possible to be vertical. - don’t use filtret as it’s damn expensive and restricts air flow too much. Use one of those cheaper ones that cost $8 for three of them and spray them with some sort of tacky adhesive to keep particles from coming back when you turn off the fan, specially if you’re keeping it on the top. Home Depot brand works well. The filtrete 3M is meant for asthma or very bad allergy but they suck really bad (pun intended) even for your air conditioner. They may say it last longer but it will shorten your a/c life span. - You could use a double sucking vents with a bigger filter (cheaper per sq inch) and a Y connection going to your motor, that would make it more efficient. I was a car painter and maintained my own paintbooth making sure i was safe and the job was done correctly. There are automotive paintbooth filters that you could check if they sell by unit that are efficient and have the sticky side ready. It might be an option. Hope it helps. Thanks again for your efforts!
A tip for connecting the pipes. PVC piping can be heated with a heat gun to become more flexible. You could heat it, mould it around the fitting in question, and let it cool down again. I've done this for shop vacs successfully.
If you still want to use the blast gates you might mount it to the cowling/hood on the booth. it would be very stable connected to that. Also you may want to cover the LEDs with packing tape. Then if over-spray starts to obscure them, you can just replace the tape.
This video really shows off how far your editing skills have come. It was also nice to get to see some of those carpentry skills you keep talking about.

Don't do either, you would be shocked how fast you lose suction. Those filters are like 1.50 each lol.

Ooof! Was wondering the price difference.

Immediately tests fan suction with spray paint.
Great build though.
I will be using it constantly for aerosol spraying. But I want people to know the "risk" and come to their own decisions.
Yeah I know. I was just trying to be funny because I'm bad at comments.
Nah, you’re just fine at comments. My reply is for posterity 😊
🤣
I just paused the video to make the same comment. 🤣 You'd probably have to spray paint with no filter for there to be any real risk.
I've been waiting for this video ever since you mentioned it! I need to build one... Now I just need to figure out how to get around my block walls to vent it. I'll probably have to vent through a hose up into the attic and then through the roof.
You can always vent out a window. You basically use something in your window kind of like what the floor AC units use for intake, except you'd be using it for exhaust. Depending on where in your house your booth is, venting up through the attic is a long way to go from the source of air, plus it is always best to avoid adding holes to a roof. There are also drill bits made specifically for cutting through mason block, as well as various other techniques for getting through block walls. Here is an example, ruclips.net/video/tt_jkWeRJa4/видео.html, but it is easy to find many other places it is talked about on the internet.
This is by far the best DIY booth I've seen on here. Glad I found this video. This is definitely the design I'll be copying to build mine, though I will also be adding a removable front cover to really help keep it clean inside when it goes months without use. Thanks for the inspiration to finally get building!
Did the same thing as you but with a stove hood fan mounted to the top of an old black TV/DVD stand for the box section. Has worked great for years. It's big enough and has built in two speed fan and light switches. I have a sheet of plexiglass that folds down to cover the top half of the front opening with the bottom half open to put my hands in to airbrush. The plexiglas helps with increasing the fan suction and decrease fumes or paint leaving the booth and offers some protection from breathing in fumes/paint when doing close up detailed work. You can also close the two glass doors on the front of the TV stand to prevent dust getting in while projects dry. Only paid $40 CND for the hood fan new from home depot and some wiring and a plug to plug into the wall so the cost of the the total build was around $70. Its rated at about 210cfm so it does the job. I also use a lazy susan turn table from ikea that was about $12. I use cheap furnace filers that I cut to size for the hood fan. All in all it's worked out well and is very inexpensive.
I got so excited when I saw this update! AT LAST! Congrats, it looks wonderful! Also, mad respect for your dark aesthetic. I love me some black, and I can really understand and appreciate why you stick to it so stalwartly. BECAUSE IT LOOKS GOOD!
Other colours cause me anxiety.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial Yeah, I wear black and get dark themes everywhere I can for the same reason.
Love had you thought out the pros and cons during the building process.
Great build & I’m glad the timing worked out so well. Definitely more of an installation than I’m ready for, but gave me some good ideas for my own.
Looks awesome! Been excited for this one since you showed the finished pic!
Really loved this video. Been on my own queue as well. Looking forward to that 3D printing content coming up soon :D
I absolutely love build videos like this. Seeing these things really makes me want to jump in and do more hobby furniture builds.
This inspired me to make my own spray booth. I kinda modeled it after yours, but made it all out of spare ABS. Thank you for all of the inspiration you always provide!
Im glad you were finally able to build this and at a good moment no less from how the weather is over there
Good call on the inline fan being an issue with combustible aerosols. I am doing a similar setup for resin printing... didnt think about the fan for venting isopropyl...
I know this is old, but if you wanted to use a baffle to save your filter, you could use that blue aquarium roll stuff over your filter. With the added bonus that you can remove it and clean it, put it back in.
I love that you did the nail gun part on beat with the song! 😂🤣
Nice build! Also, I'm totally jelly of the beautiful forest at the end of your property.
Hello! Thanks for filming this video. I am building my own spray booth as well for airbrushing and was trying use some other fans and power supplies and LED lights. after viewing your video I was able to rationalize the purchase of the inline fane and the LED lights with power, both of which simply plug into an outlet. Turns out the inline fan is going to be 15% more powerful than the industrial computer fan I was going to use and the led lights are install ready. Venting is not an issue because I am going to be spraying next to a window so the venting was never an issue. Thanks so much for the informative video and you sure changed my mind!
I am new to airbrushing but was inspired by your spray booth build but not as sturdy. I bought the exact inline fan and since my workspace is in the basement, I was able to vent through half of the 14" x 36" double window (bug screen side) and insulated with Masonite and 2" styrafoam sandwich. the biggest problem was fitting the 4" aluminum flex duct onto the original cheap damper which was also 4". sent it back to Amazon and paid more for a better damper and had less of a problem to put it all together. thanks again for a well presented video
Love that 1st ed AD&D collection! Glad you got your spray booth going.
I made one a few weeks ago out of a bathroom vanity cast off from renovation. The actual spray area is a lot smaller but boy it's nice having a dedicated space for airbrushing.
Thanks for sharing this - with your background in construction, I needed to see your take. I’ve been debating ventilating through the roof vent in my garage, but through the wall seems like the way to go. I have a tandem for my resin printer too - the wife appreciates having the stink out of the house haha..
"I dont know what id use a 3d printer for" 2 minutes later "I need an adapter to fit these two pieces together" HMMMM
lol thought the same thing... honestly I would print them and ship them if @
Black Magic Craft needs em (need the dimensions)). I have a Prusa MK3 and a Photon.
Great job man. looking to do something like this myself and you gave me a lot of ideas. The MDF is the way to go I think. Again, great job.
"Welcome to another season of This Old House"
Amazing video Jeremy! That setup is ridiculously cool and I hope you get awesome use out of it. I spend a lot of time on my computer both for gaming or hanging out, and also working, and finding your channel has been a big inspiration to get into crafting, and more into building things with my hands, so thank you for providing that. Cheers!
Brilliant job Sir. very informative, especially with regards to the fan, and the potential risk factor. I personally haven't seen another video, which brings this very important issue to light.
Also like the fact you post links to the items in other countries too. 10/10
I love the look of your spray booth. Glad you got it done before the snow fell.
This is exactly where I am in my hobby right now. Thanks J!!!!!!! Rock on sir! Edit - EXCELLENT production quality man! Things have come so far!
Great build and i can’t believe how quiet that fan is!
Will definitely be using this as a guideline for my own spray booth once I finish building out my studio space. Thanks for sharing.
Cord snag. Exactly why I have the Dewalt 20v Max circular saw. I really should build one of these. Normally I just open the door and window.
Jeremy: I went out of my way to order a black one, because... you know...
Me: Snorts hot coffee.
Wow, it was no joke, I heard you guys had to declare a state of emergency so they could divert more power from Hydro to you. Hope you're fine man! Having no power multiple days is no fun! The weather had a pretty weird pattern going on the last few weeks. Wish you well!!!
There’s still a few thousand poles and a couple hundred towers down. Lots of people without power throughout the province. Red Cross is involved. No deaths as far as I know thankfully.
And was completely preventable.
@@Jimunu so
I agree with you. I just want to add it so people know.
Nice! Thanks for the ideas. I plan to connect into (and replace) the dryer exhaust by a y connect and "block gate" type valve system.
If you have a busy bee tools store in Winnipeg, check them out for the air extraction parts. They carry all that stuff for wood shop dust collectors
I love how its all black. I made a booth as well i just needed to buy some premade metal kit and a blower. Just love it.
Thank you for this. It's exactly what I've been kicking around in my noggin for quite some time. Hope it serves you well.
This is an awesome build! I'm going to try and do something similar when I build mine. I also wanted to mention a feature I saw on a spray booth I worked with when I worked at Rockwell Collins that I had never thought of, but thought it was a nice feature to add. There was a pressure gauge that told you how much vacuum was being pulled between the fan and the filter, and that was to tell you when you needed to replace the filter. This was to preserve the fan, and if you're going to be using the booth often, then it'll probably be a useful feature to add.
Clever idea!
I've found that I just vacuum my sponge filters, you'd be amazed to see how well it works. The paint is dry by the time it hits the filter so it's effectively just dust. Nice build :]
Great tip!
Thanks for the tips, just got the same type of in line fan for the enclosure I'm building for my first 3D printer. Thanks for all the content and knowledge shared, cheers!
Looks fantastic... still slowly building up my collection of materials, so I can start crafting! Keep up the good work.
Today I picked up my first-ever (after over a year) XPS foam, instead of crafting with foamboard and Styrofoam. Looking forward to making stuff with it.
Finding myself enjoying this kind of content from you as much as the regular stuff. Keep on!
I think it is awesome that we use the same tools for .building non mini stuff. I am starting my finish of my basement and looking at a lot of what you do for ideas.
OK. Comment #1: Love the old school AD&D & D&D books and boxes. #2. Not sure about the printing shake, but I can see it being a thing, although I think more of a thing with an FDM machine. better to be safe than sorry. #3 Snow like that when the trees can still collect it in the leaves SUCKS, we had a SINGLE DAY like that a couple years back in Calgary, can't imagine the damage multiple days would do. #4 nice and simple despite it's more permanent set-up, especially using the full-size cut pieces of MDF.
I'm pretty sure I WILL end up putting the printer on top. It's fairly stable, but I decided I'll just screw the side of the booth directly to my work bench, which is bolted to the wall. This will eliminate basically all risk of bumps/shake issues.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial I guess if the resin is shaking from side to side a little as it cures through the UV light it might cause issues. Made a decision on the machine you want yet? :)
I already got something sitting waiting to be opened and set up 🤫......gotta find the time.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial I can't wait to see what printer you choose. Elegoo Mars? Or perhaps someone sent you that new Phrozen beast-of-a-printer to review?
Cool build.
You could use an in-line charcoal and/or HEPA filter. Then you don’t have to vent it outside (great if you don’t own the place you live in, ie apartment or rental) or you just don’t want to drill holes through your wall. And..... you really should go ahead and pony up for a “non-sparking”/brushless fan (I’ve found some for about $75-$380 USD depending on the flow rate & size you want). Even though the charcoal & HEPA should eliminate fire risk if it’s before the fan.
I have the same exact setup I did in my house. I have an inline fan and hoses connecting my spray booth and 3D Printers. For the Y I had the same exact thing as you. I used E6000 to glue the blast gates to the Y and black masking tape to hold it in place as it dries. I was concerned it wouldn't hold because you're right, it takes a lot of force to open the gates but after a few months of usage it held up just fine.
Basically you just butt joined the two pieces with glue? That actually would probably work. I'm not sure if the parts are PVC, but if they are plumbers PVC glue might be enough for that sort of connection as it "welds" the pvc. Thanks for the tip, for some reason I didn't really think about going that route because it seems so vulnerable.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial Yep, butted together and glued. Not sure about them being PVC as well.
I know this is an old video but wanted to thank you for the inspiration just built mine today pretty similarly to yours. Same fan and all, used a carbon filter and plywood instead
Well thanks to your words of encouragement i am about to mog podge my first build and paint it so im excited to see how it turns out its amazing how one idea can turn into several
Excellent timing i have been scrouring the net looking at what people do.
Also, I would Put some clear tape on the lights so you can peel it off if stray paint frosts them up.
Keep it up, i love your work
Turned out nice! Spared no expense.
Looks great! I wish I owned a house so I could build in a paint booth too. QUESTION: how well does it work? Does the suction going up work as well as going back? I doubt it should make a difference, but I'm curious if it does.
I havn't had a chance to use it much yet, but I can say in my testing with the airbrush no overspray makes it out of the booth. I will still be wearing a mask as working that close you can still breathe in some of the dust, but I feel confident it won't spread out into my workspace in any noticeable way. In terms of smells it seems to be quite effective. Trying the Citadel primer in it (which is the worst smelling paint I own) it reduces the smell in the room significantly, and over a short period of time (several minutes) completely.
The whole system works even better if you crack a window to bring in fresh air and negate the negative pressure from the draw. A 200+ CFM fan can quickly cause negative pressure and chimney backdraft issues if left running for long periods with no source of air intake to make up the difference.
Over all I think the design and fan I chose were a success and at this point wouldn't do it any different. Perhaps after more use I will find things that could be improved.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial I would suggest a follow-up video in the future to discuss how it has worked out for you in general, after a while of use of course.
You could have one where the vent sits in the window, kind of like the intake on those floor AC units. Then it doesn't matter if you own the house.
@@ILoveFilm247 As, indeed, I already do. though a built-in one would be primo-deluxe.
Thanks for the great idea for a exhaust booth. Building one of these will alleviate issues caused by smelly chemical smells that stick to everything. Again great idea KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO
Wow, that booth is dope af! If I had the space, I’d make this. I live in an apartment so I opted for the master airbrush portable booth. Great build!
That is exactly the paint booth that I want to build. The sise is perfect and I thought the same for the blower, but I will add a fan behind the booth, so all the the toxic vapor goes through. the different is that I will use and other material. Theyr are kind of dark brown 1/4 inch which I don't know how we call that.
Nice. I built mine out of reclaimed particle board, an old dryer vent hose, a reclaimed lamp, two reclaimed switches, a reclaimed outlet, and the only brand new item was the direct drive fan. It was pretty fun building it and getting it to work.
Love the nail gun going with the beat, that's such a nice touch
I would mount the baffle against the lower corner in the paint area and the front corner of the angle above. All you would need then are magnetic cabinet door latches to keep it from falling out.
Nice job on the spray booth. Have to find videos of you using it.
Can this system (or most paint collector systems) also help with dust collection? Or should we have two separate stations (paint and sanding)?
I would think two separate systems. The reason being is that you wouldn't want any sanding dust residue left to get into your paint or get onto the object being painted.
@@pamm2230 makes sense. Thanks!
For sanding make a downdraft table connected to a vac can get ones that turn on when the sander does
I appreciate your commitment to black
Great video! Very easy to understand. Best of tones of videos on how to build a spray both. Quick question what set up or Airbrush holder did you get? Looks convenience. 👍🏽
Thank You
Great looking spray booth. For those thinking of doing one them selves, some suggestions. Keep the run as short as possible, and avoid the use of flex hose. Opt for rigid metal pipe. Flex hose cause turbulance and reduces the effectiveness. Also keep the number of offsets (elbows) to a minimum. Instead of 90 s try to use 45 s. Don t use the Filtreat filters, I use cheap fibre glass filters (package of 3 fo 5-6 dollars.
This thing is so bright and white, that if you diffuse that light with some parchment paper or similar fabric it also poses as a lightbox
I like your video and your spray booth, it came out great. One suggestion your filter, I would have build a filter box on the outside before the square to round first that way you can slide the filter in and out. then put a screen on the inside of the filter hole.
Plus nearly got blinded when you turned on those lights. LOL
Talks about cutting hole in wall avoiding stuff - i look at my brick walls and remember having to hire a core drill to fit outlet for clothes drier....
Awesome build! This is next major project, so this was very timely. Thanks Jeremy!
I've been meaning to watch this video for some time now, and am glad I finally did. It looks great, and from what I can tell, it works just as great as it looks. One question: What is holding the filter in place?
So awesome...going to do this for sure
Woooow, very nice addition!
Dunno if you ever sourced the couplings you were looking for, but thats a very easy job for a 3d printer to take care of.
You could use a boat bilge ventilation fan.. They come in inline config and I would think they would be spark proof, especially the ones used for gasoline engine housing ventilation.
I have a question, placing fan far from the booth will make it loss suction power or not? Thanks
Ooh shiny!
One thing I have always regretted is not ever picking up airbrushing.
I might need more space now.
Never too late. You can start fairly cheap.
Someday. Right now, no space or budget.
Goals then.....
I've only airbrushed faces at LARPs.
Awesome video! Man, you did some slick editing in this one! I loved the way you timed your tools like the nailgun with the beats in your music. I know you did it with multiple things, but that's the one that stuck in my mind. Great job on that fantastic build- the spray ooth looks amazing!
I'm using AC Infinity Cloudline fans for another project. They're amazing! Super quiet and energy efficient, and they push a lot of air. Getting an airbrush and spray booth are on my to-do list. Along with a lot of other projects.
Which one you using and i much CFM ?
Just an awesome video on this. Thank you!
Thanks for the video, that was awesome! How has the filter changing been? How often, and how difficult? I was thinking I would build it with clips to hold the filter instead of the double stick. Thanks for the video, that was awesome!
I still LOVE this BUILD, I need one in my craft room for my own stuff, but mine needs to be a bit smaller.. Hmm.. Pencil to Paper time! THANKS FOR THE GREAT IDEAS!! !! : )
Great clarifying video.
Some recommendations:
- to install a small lip on the sides around the “mouth” what would keep the light inside without blinding you.
- Also, paint an off white on the walls and ceiling and a darker gray on the floor but not bright white, it’s more soothing to the eyes and gives you a better notion of the colors you’re painting with without light bouncing back on your face so hard and getting your eyes confused.
- the filter must take the most possible area on the back and if possible to be vertical.
- don’t use filtret as it’s damn expensive and restricts air flow too much. Use one of those cheaper ones that cost $8 for three of them and spray them with some sort of tacky adhesive to keep particles from coming back when you turn off the fan, specially if you’re keeping it on the top. Home Depot brand works well. The filtrete 3M is meant for asthma or very bad allergy but they suck really bad (pun intended) even for your air conditioner. They may say it last longer but it will shorten your a/c life span.
- You could use a double sucking vents with a bigger filter (cheaper per sq inch) and a Y connection going to your motor, that would make it more efficient.
I was a car painter and maintained my own paintbooth making sure i was safe and the job was done correctly. There are automotive paintbooth filters that you could check if they sell by unit that are efficient and have the sticky side ready. It might be an option.
Hope it helps.
Thanks again for your efforts!
Trance - flying high, who too?
Love the nail gun edit you did, to match the music! Also great looking booth.
A tip for connecting the pipes. PVC piping can be heated with a heat gun to become more flexible. You could heat it, mould it around the fitting in question, and let it cool down again. I've done this for shop vacs successfully.
If you still want to use the blast gates you might mount it to the cowling/hood on the booth. it would be very stable connected to that.
Also you may want to cover the LEDs with packing tape. Then if over-spray starts to obscure them, you can just replace the tape.
love the booth much better than the ones that fold up will last you a long time great job .
Thank you for the inspiration. I just spent the day making my own paint booth. Can’t wait to use it.
This video really shows off how far your editing skills have come. It was also nice to get to see some of those carpentry skills you keep talking about.
Thank you with so many options out there you just simplified it for me.
Wow Jeremy! that was an awesome video!! You truly are one if not the best resource for our hobby! Thank you and keep up the awesome work!!
