Hood position
    #22453148 - 10/30/15 11:08 AM (8 years, 3 months ago)

Hey guys could me having my hood offset like this be somehow drawing bad shit into my airstream?



See how I have my hood set slightly lower than my work table? If this could cause an issue I can quickly adjust it. I never thought to ask though

The air from the hood could be hitting the table and dragging contams into the air flow. Yeah it could be, fix that.

You just have it set so the actual filter is level with the table,( vs mine which has like an inch difference because of the frame), right?

I started setting my hood on a big piece of glass thats really easy to keep clean. Maybe try that?

If you look at my sig I use a rack to keep short stuff like agar work up higher in the flow.

Ive actually heard its ok to work on my plates down on the glass even with a set up like mine. Thoughts on that anyone?


Ive always admired Mr. Alien's bench! I have thought about setting up a plexiglass hood like that too. Of course my hood is quite a bit smaller so I dunno if it would make my work cumbersome, it was suggested I set up a cardboard hood and try a couple dry runs.
It would definitely be hard to get the plexiglass flush with my filter like Mr. Alien's.

Do you wipe down that whole hood each time yea?

Why did you decide to set it up this way?
