I’ve got a small studio in a spare room in my apartment. I don’t
currently solder or polish there, but I’m interested in doing so.
Since this is a room in my home, though, I’m especially concerned
with safety. I don’t need all sorts of nasty particles landing in the
carpet and getting tracked all over my living space.
I’m looking into buying a fume extractor and dust collector (DIY is
not an option for me at the moment), and I’ve found a few models that
I think would suit my needs. However, I don’t have any real way of
evaluating their quality. Are they reliable? Do they work well? Do
they work at all? It’s not like I can go on Amazon and see what 200
other people have said.
Does anyone have any recommendations? I was leaning towards Sentry
Air, but I looked at their Yelp review (review, singular) and now I’m
wary.
If you use tripoli and rouge, it will get everywhere anyway. I put
my polishing set up in a closet with a curtain in front. Works
pretty well. Also put a cheap rug on top of the supposedly good rug
the apartment provides.

Oh, definitely, I’d planned to put something down. I actually use
Luxi when polishing, since I’ve found it’s so much cleaner than
tripoli, rouge, etc.
