I was considering converting a 10x12' storage building into a woodworking shop, where I could do work such as stripping, sanding, refinishing, etc. on a regular basis. Things like insulating, wiring/lighting, etc. are not a problem as I'm familiar with that work, but I'm not sure what to do for ventilation. Obviously, when working with flammable and unhealthy vapours, sanding dust, etc, some kind of ventilation is needed. An open window is fine - except on a cold January night when the windchill can hit -40oC. What kind of ventilation options are available, without having to spend a small fortune, or end up risking frostbite during cold weather? Thanks for any advice.
