So I'm working on a very large dragon sculpture in my studio. Right now I'm working with some construction adhesive that is giving me dizzy spells. The room has a sliding glass door that I open up (despite the heat) and place a fan in front of. The fan is pointing outwards to push the air outside. I'm still getting dizzy spells after working with the adhesive. I think it's because my face is rather close to the work area. How can I better ventilate so I don't end up killing myself?

instead of removing the fumes from the room, try removing them from the place that you are breathing....which can be difficult because if you put the fan towards the adhesive it will cure faster.
a few suggestions:
1 work outside
2 breathe through a snorkel
3 put the fan closer to you to geht the fumes out of your immediate area
4 buy a really expensive respirator
