Building my dream Spray Booth Part 1

For years I've dreamed of having my own spray booth. Not a £50,000 professional booth... just a space where I could finally paint my own classic cars without covering the entire workshop in overspray. The funny thing is, this project didn't actually start today. It started years ago when I bought my first compressor, my welding equipment, and even my air-fed mask. I've always believed that if the tools are already in the workshop, one excuse has already disappeared. The next step is simply learning how to use them. That's what Rookie Restorations is all about. Not pretending to know everything... But building the capability to restore anything. In Part 1 of this series we're building the structure, designing the airflow, constructing the extraction plenum, fitting paint arrestor filters and trying to create a DIY spray booth that actually works. Along the way we'll also talk about why so many home restoration projects stall, how the right workshop can remove barriers to progress, and why making mistakes is often the fastest way to learn. If you're restoring a classic car, building your own workshop, or just enjoy watching someone figure things out one project at a time, I hope you'll enjoy following along. --- 🔧 Projects on the channel: 🚗 Classic Mini Restoration 🏁 Triumph GT6 Restoration 🛻 Land Rover Defender Builds 🏗️ Workshop Projects ⚡ DIY Fabrication 🎥 Real-world learning, mistakes and problem solving --- 👍 If you enjoyed the video, please leave a like and let me know in the comments: *What's the one workshop upgrade that's made the biggest difference to your projects?* I read every comment, and many of them shape future videos.
