I would never even think of casting in any "living" space inside my home, regardless of ventilation. I cast in my garage, with both doors open and a fan blowing across my workbench towards those open doors. When I was a kid, it was out back on a covered patio. Leather gloves, long sleeves, no food or drink in the area, all clothing goes right in the wash afterwards, and I hit the shower. I've been at it for over 40 of my 51 years, and every year I request that my blood sample be tested for lead exposure as a part of my routine physical. I've never had a problem.

Please don't do this in the house...
