Little gloat. I purchased this air filter for spraying water based finishes and dyes. Since I have no windows in the building I decided to get one and will as you can see in picture #2 a 4" dryer vent to vent to the outside. I have had bronchitis problems when spraying finishes even wearing a mask because of no way to eliminate the fumes. Well now I can and will also control over spray which will be nice. It will also be nice when doing pyro pieces as it will exhaust the smoke. I had a box fan with a filter but did little IMHO. Going to mount a light in the top or just use my desk lamp.

That's a really nice set up there. I just got finished stinking up my garage/shop bigtime. What's the size opening there?

Glad to see your new filter system. My lungs are pretty much done,my own fault. You really want to take care of your lungs.

Thanks all. Tried it out tonight and wow what a difference. I pulled my mask off and no smell or lingering fumes.

Thanks Michelle. It does look like the answer for me anyway. Want to try my airbrush and HVLP small gun with some water based finish now.
