    I would like to add charcoal filtration to our temporary structure where we laminate. Does anyone have any experience with this, and can give me some insight as to how to contruct such a system.

    I imagine you want to pacify the neighbors ( it won't take the place of a respirator). Indoor pot growers sometimes use them to eliminate the smell and the systems are sold ( and homemade ones described ) wherever those people surf. Google "grow your own" or "marihuana" or something and that will get you started. "Activated charcoal" is the heart of the system and it can be bought in bulk, again Google that to find where.

    Sam, I appreciate the response and will Google it. However, what I am looking for is a system including all of the components, ie; fan, duct work, container.

    There is a good article in Pro BoatBuilder in a past issue. ( can't remember which) you'll have to check the index because I am too lazy.
