DIY Spray Booth

Whew! Its been a while since my last post, hehe. Quite a busy first quarter of 2009 for me. Anyway, my spray booth is almost finished and here are some progress pics for this project:




Above is the duct fan that I will be installing to the spray booth. It costs around P500 to P700 these days, not too small but not too big.




Here, I cut the edge of the rear panel at an angle to form a miter joint with the left and right acrylic panels to achieve the desired shape.





After making the necessary measurements, I cut the inside of the rear panel where the duct fan will be attached.





Time to assemble the panels, hehe. Using a variety of tools (electric drill, jigsaw, screwdriver) I was able to put all the pieces together. Making the acrylic sheets meet was the tricky part, hehe. Here I cut thin strips to reinforce the joints and used CA (CyanoAcrylic) glue, common brand is Mighty Bond and eventually all the parts were joined.




I have thought of adding angular aluminum sheets to reinforce the joint between the rear and bottom panel before attaching the duct fan, just to be sure.
