Hi Scott,
My shop is in my basement and I never smell a thing in the house. The fumes from epoxy are nothing like polyester, thankfully.
Someone here, forget who sorry, had a good idea of using a small fan, like a bathroom exhaust fan in the basement exhausting to the outside to draw a tiny vacuum on the basement so that any airflow would be into the basement rather than into the house. Should totally eliminate any smells seeping into the house as well as keeping the dust out of the house too.
Btw, I don't have one of these fans yet and I still don't smell anything upstairs even after extensive use of epoxy in the basement.
