Like I mentioned previously, I've used packaging and duct tape to reinforce the boxes for this little project. I've actually managed to use up a whole 2-inch wide roll just to wrap the edges and reinforce the seams. I've also used 4 1/8" diameter 1-inch bolts with washers to secure the fan mount to the bottom of the main part of the booth.

Cheap DIY Paint Booth ver MatX Part I
While I've already started retouching the Ronin, I
still couldn't paint full blast, mainly because of the spray dust I
manage to gather every time I paint a whole kit. I was supposed to
build this weeks ago (I actually bought and mounted the fan on a strip of
plywood a year ago when I painted the Chimera), but I wasn't that
motivated until early this afternoon.
I was planning a foldable spray booth made with plywood, but my usual creativity won't drive the gears to get me going, even though the design was simlple enough to pull off.
Since I have plenty of corrugated boxes from all my grocery sojourns, I thought of recycling them buggers and make a cheap spray booth instead. My last trip to the grocery gave me this layered box, which is actually one box inside another, but, what was "special" about this one is that there's another "layer" of corrugated board inside the wall, which is perfect for what I have in mind.
