If you have a one story house in the workshop area, you could add a duct to the soffit area of the roof for the intake and another for the hot exhaust air. Should work great. I have been thinking about getting permission from SHMBO for the same idea. June, July and August is all I need and just sometimes.

: I have an old - an inefficient - window air conditioner lurking in
: the basement and often wonder about harnessing it in the
: workshop for the relatively short periods of time that I spend
: there, but the practical aspects are challenging as none of the
: windows open. What does work well is extra insulation added a
: few years back and a box fan suspended from the ceiling to
: circulate the air and create a slight breeze. I tape a furnace
: filter to it to clean the air when I am doing heavy sanding.
