The same company has replacement filters at $9.99 each.

My original plans were to  use 3 of the wafer fans, (which I already have), built into the back of the bench and covered with a washable filter. Each of the wafer fans will move 110 CFM of air.

As stated, I already have the fans. Also the mounting plate for the fans, the filter and mounting cage for it. Everything was surplus material from computer racks.

On another forum it was suggested that I use a squirrel cage fan which would certainly do the job, but that would leave a big fan hanging off the back of the bench. Shop space limitations just won't allow the extra space that would be needed.

I should add that I'm already using 2 of these same wafer fans to move warm air from my fireplace into the living room. Warm as toast in there, so 3 of these fans mounted in a 1-1/2 X 2 foot  area should draw enough air out of my work area.
