Hi, ALl, I was wondering whether anyone is familiar with air-
filtration/fume hood type systems suitble for a very small in-home
glassworking bench. Best would be somehting that coudl be lifted
onto the working surface during soldering/grinding (tho' I intend to
do most of my grinding outside, as I have a covered porch), then
lifted off and moved when I'm wither scoring glass, or using the
table for some other purpose.

TIA!

I googled this, but the only such motors I found prices for *started* at
over $700 =8-O !

But I'd considered a similar setup using a regular tabletop fan, or a duct
fan, with a good CFM rating, since both are easily available.

I looked at some pics of the motors and they're awfully complex, so I'm
thinking along the lines of a duct fan, or at e last a ducted fan. I jsu
thtought of this now, but might be an idea to look at the ducted fans used
to build and fly large model jets... I hadn't thought of that before...
