Is that your own paint booth? If so, do you have any plans or info on how you went about building it?

Yes, If I posted a pic with a booth, that was my booth. I actually copied a Binks "Really Clean" booth that my friend has (he owns a body shop). When I was 17 I built it. I spent 6 months of weekends and nights fabricating all the panels and brackets. I had access to a 10 foot shear and brake through the family business (Hence why I could only use it on nights and weekends). I punched thousands of holes on 6 inch centers just like the binks booth using a template I made to mark out the holes and transfer punch. I did change the design of the plenum, bi-fold doors and walk in door a bit because I didn"t have the specialty equipment to make the doors like binks. One of my future projects is to have new doors made which will be lighter and close a little better. But these have worked ok for a long time( I built it 17 years ago- wow I didn"t realize it was that long already!). I built it because I needed a clean painting environment and my parents would not let me spray anything without the safety of a booth. I built it myself because I couldn"t afford a booth, but I could afford the raw materials and had time. It meets OSHA too. No I don"t have any formal plans. I made hand sketches and dimensions when I built it, but was basically copying a Binks. It was a lot of work and if you don"t have access to the equipment I mentioned, I recommend finding a used booth or saving your money for a new one. The galvanized 18ga ones are going to be the longest lasting. The painted regular steel ones can rust over time (like the used Devilbiss booths I"ve seen). There are some newer booths that are powder coated white. Not sure how they fair over time. They are sometimes put together with self tapping screws as opposed to nuts and bolts like mine and you may have to pay for assembly on site with those.
