Paint booth
I'm pretty happy. I wanted to shoot my car in a booth instead of the makeshift garage setup I have. So tonight was my first auto body class at the local college. 3 booths...woo hoo. But i have to sit through all this basic stuff. But it shouldn't hurt too much

You will benefit greatly from your class
that community college program is a great deal. I have always enjoyed my time during my tig Welding class, Seems like here in phoenix, the school have dropped auto paint/body.

Prices have increased here from 20 to 26 bucks a credit. 4.5 credits. Not a bad deal price wise. Figuring the cheapest booth I could find is 50 an hour. And it does include mig welding in this class. Ive already done some mig and tig so the practice will be helpful.

Cerritos College has a night class. Long Beach has day classes. A lot of the classes are being cut.

sounds like a good plan,
I recently shoot my car at home, after a good cleaning and hanging plastic walls.
installed a small box fan for negative pressure, I was very happy with the results.
No enviroment trash, more problems with sweat, and dumb mistakes like dragging the hose across a panel. Good luck
