[quote]good point… does it have to made of metal and have the sprinklers, or can you use frame and drywall with siding such as FRP like you see in restaurants?just thinking? :huh:[/quote]
i have a hand made booth but we made it with cement block walls and I-beam and sheet metal roof. it was built to replace a booth that was made from 2×4’s and sheetrock. i wouldn’t use anything less then heavy gauge metal or concrete. as far as the sprinklers go it was a requirement from the fire inspection so we installed water sprinklers but i never keep water in the pipes ever to prevent a leak that would destroy work. but now they have dry chemical sprinklers which in my opinion is cheaper to install since you dont have to run piping across the shop. but as far as heating the booth in the winter thats been the real nightmare. i was thinking of installing a boiler, running radiators around the perimeter of the booth but that just takes up so much space and collects dirt. it looks like its gonna be time to buy a ready-made booth with heat.
