Hi Guys,

 

I have one half of my garage set for woodwork and one half for painting. I have as much divider in the middle as I can to keep the dust out of the paint side. Can anyone recommend any kind of extractor unit that doesn’t need fixing in the wall?

 

i am thinking some portable unit that simply sucks dust and wood particles out of the air and then sends them out the door through a tube or something. Or collects it like an air vacuum kind of thing.

 

something that works well.

 

thanks in advance.

Don't think it can be done. If it is to have enough poke to clear the air properly it needs to be fixed into the wall.

I have a 20 foot workshop in my garden which I sometimes use for fibreglassing. The resin has a heavy odour and absolutely stinks so I have a large (20 inch) fan mounted in the wall above the double doors. 

If you want to use it to suck up wood particles as well as dust you should clean up with a garden vac. Then empty the bag into a black bin liner. A lot of tools have a dust extraction bag but they are usually absolutely gash.
