HOW TO: Making a Custom Paint Booth with Lights!

Disclaimer: This paint booth is intended for hobby use. We plan to use it only for non-VOC paint (mostly acrylic paints applied with an airbrush). In hindsight, wood wasn't the best choice of material for the frame due to how flammable it is. Years of accumulated paint could make this paint booth a fire hazard. I intend to replace all of the frame parts with less flammable material soon. Build your own paint booth at your own risk.

Bill made a super handy custom Paint booth to help him paint more safely in the shop AND ventilate the laser cutter at the same time! Follow along to see how Bill makes this one-of-a-kind piece.
