That looks like some quality construction!

You may want to consider replacing that glass window with plexiglass, or even putting a sheet of plexi over the glass on the screen side (interior of washout booth). When you're moving the screen around in there, flipping it over and around, if you bump that glass with the corner of the screen it will likely break. If you find that the wood inside the booth begins to get wet or absorb moisture through the paint, consider lining the interior of the booth with that white FRP stuff you can get at Home Depot, then using silcone at the seams and corners...
