spray booth base
Posted by nemeisis1 on Wednesday, September 9, 2009 3:28 PM
I am looking into building a down draft spray booth, what do use as the base to sit the turntable on? I imagine pegboard or a mesh screen so the air will flow.

I think pegboard would obstruct airflow too much. In considering a down-draft design for the booth I'm working on, I've considered "chicken wire" or some other loose weave metal screen material. You should be able to find it at Lowe's, Home Depot, etc.

This is the stuff I use for my downdraft spray booth.

I actually got it al Lowes, but couldn't find it on their website.  It comes in 2x4 foot sheets, is pretty rigid, and I have some course filter media under that.

Hope that works for you!
