My wife redoes furniture doing the shabby chic method. She sands a lot of furniture, paints and sand to stress etc. I bought an 8x12 storage shed, mounted a window unit and in process of insulating and installing 1/2" plywood walls. Ventilation fan is my question, what kind do I need to help remove the sanding dust? Is there a better method?

I use an HVAC squirrel-cage type blower I salvaged from an old unit. Mount it on an inside wall opposite the door, put a flapper on the outside, and then prop the door open just a tad to let the air flow through. It does a good job on my shop--8x12 plus12x12 so should really give a good air exchange in an 8x12 -
I had the same size in Texas before we moved and I put a cheap box fan from the dollar store in the window and cracked the door open it kept up with the amount of dust I was producing.Comment

You can take a cheap box fan and tape a A?C filter on the back of it and turn it on. it will suck the dust into the filter.Comment
