    Slide out expandable paint booth....?

    This is what I'm thinking about now. This is not exact and is missing lots of details..... It would be like the picture most of the time. To expand it, the front wall with doors& filters would detach and be moved forward. Then the folding side walls would be moved into place. Then the hinged...

    Slide out expandable paint booth....?

    I'm leaning toward a different idea. I've drawn up a fold up design with a movable end wall. Less complicated than a slide out. Easier to seal.

    Slide out expandable paint booth....?

    I considered it, but I would still have to make a temporary extension when I paint a whole vehicle. I don't think this is an overly complicated idea, really.

    Slide out expandable paint booth....?

    I considered one, but I just don't think it would be practical for me. I frequently paint smaller stuff & clearing out 1/2 of my shop to set up a full size booth would not be worth it. Having a small booth, that needs no setup, which can be extended when I paint a whole car is what I want, if it...

    Slide out expandable paint booth....?

    That was my vision. I want to use the "small booth" most of the time and extend it when I need to paint something bigger. I had considered tubes for the slides, but hadn't pictured them recessed in the ceiling. That's a pretty good idea.

    Slide out expandable paint booth....?

    Yeah, 20' is little tight for a complete car. I might stretch the overall to 22'. That's about all I can go. The shop is 30' deep & I want to be able to park a vehicle in front it. I thought about a folding setup, but couldn't think of a way that I liked. It does seem like a better way to go...

    Slide out expandable paint booth....?

    I've been trying to work out how to build a permanent paint booth in my shop. I can't give up that much floor space, so I'm thinking about building a 12' wide x 10' deep structure w storage on top. I'm trying to figure out the best way to make a 10' slide-out with the doors on the front. It...

    Had the building w/ doors & floor built by in the spring of '20. 30x40 with a 10' overhang on the back. I built the loft & work benches from the wood from 2 buildings that I tore down. Found a used 14000lb 4post lift locally. Love that thing. Planning on building a paint booth. I have some...
