The painting booth also looks good and something i should buy. Can you share any details like dimensions, the booth's brand/model or maybe a link? TIA

A Canadian hardware store called Princess Auto, they sell them under their own brand name, but I'm sure that there are a lot of compaies that buy the same model and slap their name on them. Made in China, of course.

Quote from: Nick on March 01, 2024, 10:35:16 AMVery nice! Looks too good to get dirty!

Pretty sure I'm going to line the insides with paper, replace when covered with spray.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Using the booth is on temporary hold until I can rework the windows in the hobby room. Basically, I need to have them slide open in the opposite direction to the way they're set up right now, too complicated to explain. I could relocate the booth, but that would entail other problems to be solved.  :banghead:

No Such Thing as a 'Quick Fix' when it comes to modelling (or Life, really...), is there?
Permutations and ramifications abound.  :-\

You'll get there :thumbsup:

Bullock's Oriole, Icterus bullockii, first year male
Toronto, Ontario, March 24, 2024
Normal summer range is western North America, winter range Mexico to Guatemala. Seems like this young male got lost on his first migration and wound up here. Feeders have kept it alive all winter, but I suspect it will move on once it fails to get replies to mating calls in a few weeks.

I built a spray booth out of the largest storage container I could find and a left over bathroom fan. I put a furnace filter in front of the fan to catch the paint mist.
