You could run almost any light metal pipe. Diesel exhaust temperature from an unloaded engine is not very hot. In fact, after a foot or so, I suspect you could run PVC, but don't load the engine.

I found the hard way, that dryer hose does not work!

Probably could use drier vent. Most of the dealership garages I've
seen have flex pipes from the ceilings so that engines can be run on
the lifts. There's not a lot of pressure there, once you get beyond a
certain point. Gotta squirrel cage fan? Put it on the end so you get
negative pressure inside your hut.

Dryer vent lasted 2.1 seconds.

Hey Iggy,

Empirical knowledge....Air compressor diesel exhaust pointed into the
mouth of a "borrowed" industrial grade 20 pound plastic Rubber-Maid 30
gallon garbage can at about 4 feet, in hopes of re-directing the
sound, the bottom is good for about 3 minutes!!! AND it didn't do
**** to re-direct the noise!!

A lot of the noise comes from the engine itself, instead of through
the exhaust

Was it the plastic or metal vent pipe?
