3D print fume venting in small workshop, what works?

Cases, brackets, parametric designs. Mounting electronics in printed enclosures.

PLA in living room was fine. Moved to ABS for outdoor work, fumes problem. Workshop is 3m x 4m, single window.

Options researching:
  • Enclosure + carbon filter inline fan
  • Direct vent to window via 4-inch duct
  • Both (enclosure first, then vented)
Real-world: anyone here printed ABS/ASA in a small room without going outside between layers? What setup ate the fumes effectively without sounding like a jet engine?
