I brought my air recycler with me so all I need to do is make a booth...wood frame with plastic sheeting will do for now. I used PVC pipe in the past but I don't think I can afford to buy the materials now, prices are crazy.

The wife was born and raised here in the Nashville area so we spent a lot of time here visiting relatives. After 52 years in California it was time to get out while we still could...don't regret the move one bit!
