Couple of things I use with my spray booth: <br />1. Cheap plastic lazy susan - you can turn things around and paint from all angles without touching it. <br />2. Chunk of wood with holes for dowels (to put car shells on for painting--the numerous holes allow quick placement of the dowels for different size engine/car shells)--put on the lazy susan. <br />3. Nearby shelves for all your bottles of paint (I still need to take a piece of 1" x 3" and drill a bottle sized hole in it for placement of the bottle of paint I'm using--will make it harder for me to inadvertantly knock the bottle over and spill the paint. <br />4. I put some cup eye hooks on the side of my booth so I could quickly & easily hang my airbrush up (helps avoid knocking bottles of paint over). <br />5. Mount a spring clip for hanging your latex gloves up when you're done using them (know they're cheap, but so am I, besides I'm more prone to use them if they're handy). <br />6. Make a spot for your Badger paint mixer (handiest little device for those small bottles of model paint). <br />7. Paper towel rack (I hung mine under the booth). <br />8. Cup hook to hang that old hair dryer so you can speed the drying. <br />9. I put Saran Wrap over my fluorescent light strip in the spray booth so it gets painted and not the light. <br />10. Mount the switch for your spray booth fan and lights very conveniently and so they come on together (I use a power strip)--no sense painting in the booth if you're not going to use the fan! <br /> And no, I'm not as organized as I'd like to be some day (but someday hope to be, but then also hope to finish my layout!).
