    I’ve been thinking the same thing. They seem to be really useful.

    Thank you everyone for your kind words, really means a lot!

    Nonsense, if I can do it, everyone can. And there's no real need of a 3D printer, everything here could have been done with kit bashing various things and building with styrene. Plus, it didn't happen overnight, I worked here and there for a long time to get all this done, you just need to take your time and build it slowly.

    Me! The gondolas are 3D printed, along with the covers. The EcoFab decals on the covers are available from.. somewhere, I'm sure a google search would remember who makes them.. ah, High ball Graphics. There's an old thread somewhere where I detailed building those gondolas and the covers. Though I straight up copied an existing gondola, maybe Athearn? So my covers would fit those too. Ah, here's that thread: Modern 52' Gondola with fiberglass cover

    I built my spray booth shortly after getting my laser cutter, I just made it from 3mm MDF, the same 12V fan model I use my my laser enclosure, and some left over strip of 12V LEDs. I even use the same 3D printed duct attachment I made for the laser cutter. That means I can easily connect the same dryer duct to the window and either the laser cutter or the airbrush booth, and I use the same power cables for the lights/fan that I use for the laser cutter. I even made the filter removeable for changing.

    Ha, gotta do the same thing, good insight inspecting yours. I'm going to share my exhaust setup with the 3D printer cabinet.
