Default Enamel/Powder Box Ventilation

On another website I found an old thread by Mark W. showing how he made a powder box out of a garbage can for using enamels. Someone else made one from wood and I was curious if anyone on LE uses a setup like that? The enamels are sucked down through a HEPA filter.

The thread was from 2004 or 2005 I think... anyone still using them?
I don't feel a respirator combined with my exhaust system is enough since from what I've read the particles float in the air for some time and settle all over everything in your studio.

(And yes, I did a quick search in the safety forum for powder box or enamel box before posting this and came up with nothing relevant.)

Thanks Mark. Well you're still alive and kicking so it must work pretty well then.
Thank you for sharing that setup, I'm glad I ran across it.
