I'm thinking of the upcoming winter when I need to, as my wife puts
it, bond with my welder. So that means welding in the basement, for
which I know I need a fume exhaust system. As usual, I intend to
build my own cheap. The surplus store has a pretty good selection of
blowers, but I have no idea what size I need (CFM). Can anyone help
me here?

MIG - shielded and flux core, but mostly shielded. It's a small
welder - 120VAC, 20A.

Just weld with it. Not many fumes.

Bad karma, Grant. _Any_ smoke in the house is bad smoke. A new or
used range hood/fan would work great for Bennet's needs and his family
(and doctor) will thank him for its installation.

Bennet, diffuse the incoming air so it doesn't disburse the gases from
the welder.
