Finally finished my budget fume extractor

[sixty4]

Awhile back I was looking for a way to weld inside my garage without all the smoke. This is a very cheaply made setup that works really well. I wanted it to mount on my welding table but be able to roll around if working on the floor.

More pics to follow on how I did the exhaust tonight if interested?

Very cool, what did you decide to use to extract the fumes? An old hvac blower?

Thanks,I could not find one, so I got this from harbor freight 8" extraction fan (not that loud at all). Seems to work very good even on the low speed. I was going to do a dryer vent style hood but really did not want to have a permanent hole through the outside. I can set it up in 10 minutes or less.
