Man, that is a nice little setup! looks like you have plenty room to work - and you can take it down when you dont need it. Its a lot nicer than my lsheets of plastic hanging from the ceiling!

Do you have any air quality regulations in Syracuse to deal with?? Here in socal, if someone built a setup like that and a neighbor or someone else reported it, the South Coast AQMD (air quality management district) would have you for lunch. I've done panel painting with a non-HVLP gun (god forbid) in the open garage in the past, but could never consider setting up something like that in the driveway. You would need to get an air permit to for a spray booth. Unfortunately, even if one were able/willing to pony up the cost and hassle of getting an air permit, that setup would never fly on meeting the requirements. One of the many benefits of living in socal  Well, there are some benefits.... Like it's 80 degrees outside my office right now and clear blue sky.....

Where did you get your Filters? What are your overall demensions, it looks really great! I'm assuming PVC for the frame, and then heavy mil sheeting?
Nice......

that looks like a very good idea careful with the paint on the sides one time I was painting a truck first I sprayed the bed and figured that I would just tape it off to avoid getting dry spots I did not have any paper big enough so I got some plastic bags worked real good for the first coat but when I sprayed the second and the air hit the plastic and gave it a little shake all of the over spay then dry flaked off and kind of screwed up the good paint next to it
