Clean bench help.

Laminar flow clean bench.

I'm planning to build something like this. I've got some HEPA filters and aluminium tubing and plastic plug in corners for the frame.
I just have to settle on the size and whether to use plastic or glass for the sides. (solid rear rather than glass)
I was thinking of using a small toilet or bathroom extraction fan to drive the air through the filters and enclosure. (with a variable speed controller)
Mine will also have sealed fold up doors on the front to keep it clean between uses.

I would appreciate any incite on thing to consider or include.

Should I push the filtered air down from the top or from the rear? What's better?

I'm hoping the nuke guys will chime in.

Also... Is it worth getting a small air speed meter for testing??? ($20 on EvilBay)
