Eric, I like your idea (controlled output) best. Maybe couple small oxygen tanks (for disabled folks) ? Use one till it needs recharging, and then switch to the other. I'd add, that wiping off all the walls once in the while (w/special wet mop for that), it would help any sort of accumulation, shift or stirring of dust.
NASA must have special little people to work under those hoods. Maybe they did contact prints of Minox film.Originally Posted by Steven Ruttenberg
I misunderstood what you were referring too. My bad, sorry.
That one is 4 foot long 2 foot deep and about 18 in tall working area. Another model I was looking at was about twice as tall for working area and about 30 in deep. The only thing I need room for is height to open scan lid all the way and it is around 18 in fully opened deep enough to stay behind air curtain.
I can also build one if I wantbut rather buy it if possible.
The other option is to hang to curtains to Seal off room a few hours before working and run an heppa filtering system and ionizing air system. Not perfect, but would work to cut down on dust.

Special little person would not be me. Former body builder so 5'10 250, I don't think I would fit.
Agreed. I am trained on dry nitrogen tanks filled to 5000psi. Not that tank would burst, but if a hose ruptured, you could be injected with high pressure gas and most likely die, or get a nasty cut or amputation. Plus, in inclosed area, a small leak of nitrogen or co2 and one could find themselves conversing with St. Peter.
They make washable sticky silicone rollers for clean rooms. I tried a smaller version made for records, and it works great: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Doesn't mark the negative or anything?
In my case, no. Use at own risk, of course.

Worth a shot. There some others out there made of foam.

Of course it is about 100 dollars for a box of a 100, so 10 bucks each. The tacky rollers are 4 inches, while the sticky foam rollers are 9 inches. Either would work.
Gonna try this and see if it helps. Thanks for the heads up.
On the topic of dust, does the Zero Stat gun work well for negatives?
