Clean Room for Speakerbuilding
Hi All,
I live in a city apartment and have no place for doing woodworking. The major problem of course is the dust. Since I wanted to build speakers and also couple nice wood cases for the amplifiers, I came up with the solution which worked very well for me. I just built DIY clean room in my kitchen. The project is not complicated and all materials could be aquired under $100. Frame is built with cheap pine 1x2s (around $30). Walls are made of plastic drop cloth stapled to the frame ($9). The filter is 3M blue Filtrete 20x20 ($15) and the fan is just a regular fan for $10. Filter is attached to the piece of 1/4" plywood cutout with double sided carpet tape. Thats it in nutshell. Photos tell the rest of the story. The key point is that this primitive clean room works extremely well. The additional benefit is that if you reverse air flow and filter direction, the room could be used for as a dust-free room for painting. All right, just wanted to share (there are six photos posted)

I love it, too!
I live in an apartment as well, and I've often toyed with the idea of doing something like that. In the end, I just did it on the balcony and let the dust blow where it may

Great idea! Does it disassemble easily, say for when you want to, oh, prepare a meal or something?
 Great original idea though. Hopefully you still wear a filter mask - even with the vacuum it seems there would still be a lot of breathable mdf dust in such a confined space. I live in a small home too, but the issue for me is more the loud sound from the power tools bothering the neighbors. Maybe your next invention can be a soundproof cleanroom! Congrats
