Thanks, I'm looking up their info :)
((I'm trying to decide whether I should go for a fume hood or fume
collector, or whether I could get away with turning my Miele on and wiring
the nozzle to the desk (it has a HEPA filter and I can get either super-
filter bags, or HEPA bags for "double filtering"), or whether I should get
a window fan (pointed outdoors) and rig up a duct. Or maybe just get a
small folding table and chair and do it outside before the day heats up too
much ;) ))
