You are not crazy! I just got this one and finished the ductwork this afternoon! This is a Pace 24” Peacemaker. Cost delivered $265.

Yes it can be done. I have no basement and the garage is not climate (or dust) controlled. I made mine so that my wife with a very sensitive nose does not complain. My hobby room is multi purpose so I made it somewhat portable too.

Heres how I recently redid mine.  I have had this spray booth for probably 12 or 13 years, and i placed it on an old cabinet I covered with some paneling to blend in with the room.   No fumes come into the room and I am able to paint in any weather conditions.  The hose is routed through a piece of thick plexi-glass and the window closes down on it for a good tight seal.  Works great.  And I have plenty of storage underneath for paint and other items.  The light is just a magnetic rechargeable light I bought at Home Depot...it puts out plenty of light.

There is thread here somewhere all about there, if you build your own use an explosion proof fan. Here’s mine I made it out of a couple totes

I have set up a new Pace spray booth this week and I think you just addressed my two concerns..  

I bought the booth that didn’t come with a self contained light. I thought I could use the two clamp on lights I used with my old booth, but they just won’t work. I will go looking for the magnetic light!

And with a solid panel holding my exhaust in my window, my room is noticeably darker with less outdoor light. Your clear plexi panel would solve this !

Thank you!

Hey Tom Geiger.  Im glad the idea helped you out.  That is the reason I used the plexi-glass...I didn't want to sacrifice losing any light.  Even tho its not a lot really....it does help.  The plexi-glass is only about an inch taller then the vent I used that the hose is connected to.....and of course as wide as the window.  That magnetic light at Home Depot is in the lighting department....its about 13 inches or so long and recharges with a USB cord....and it has 3 light settings from sorta dim to full bright (what you see in the picture).   It works really great.  Good luck with what you do with yours.
