: Hi Jack, If you're able have a small exhaust fan in your shop
: window you should be fine. Close up (but don't completely seal)
: the shop space and turn on the exhaust fan. As the air exhausts
: from the shop the negative pressure will pull air from the rest
: of the house, effectively blocking fumes from the making their
: way from the shop to the living space. Use a small enough fan
: you can leave it on a day or so while the strongest odors are
: present. It should be completely undetectable in the rest of the
: house.
: Mark

To add to this, an inexpensive bathroom exhaust fan will work fine, usually are quiet too and don't use much electric.
