Creating original painting booth Vol.1
Why I decide to create an original painting booth by myself.
During I was building the millennium falcon model kit, I realized that a brush painting and a spray painting is pretty difficult for beginners as I. It looks no bad on photos, however I made some mistakes in painting it.I think I should improve my painting skill to build next model, and I'm sure I cannot improve my own skill because I'm not good at an artistic work.This is because I want to purchase an airbrush.
A painting booth will be needed because I want to use the airbrush in my room. Especially, I consider that a powerful suction and a quietness are important. I had looked for such a painting booth on the market, however I could n't find a suitable one.I made decision to make an original painting booth by myself.
The fan.
Sirocco fan
I had selected a sirroco fan because it good at suction and quietness. I purchased FY-24BM6K by Panasonic which can provide 212㎥/h with only 38db noise.
It is bigger than I thought.
Connection test
Connection test with a power cable by Mitsubishi. I feel it is very quiet.
Suction test
First suction test.
Conclusion
I had a plan to build the booth by plastic boards, however the cardboard box which a honeycomb filter was in seems suitable for that. Then I will try to build it by that cardboard box firstly...
