For those who might be interested. I found a small little project to build in 
"Instructables.com" called a "Fume Extractor" which fits in an Altoids 
Tin,(what else), It involves a small computer fan,a  piece of carbon fiber 
filter from a fish tank filter, a switch, 2, 9v batteries,connectors for 
them,and some wires.and some incidental parts like screening for the holes you 
cut in altoids tin to let air pass through the fan.
The jist is that you set it behind the soldering you are doing and the fumes 
are sucked into the unit,scrubbed by the filtering materials and blown out the 
back of unit. Sucking them away from you and cleaning bad stuff out of the air 
in the room from the soldering. Batteries are wired in series so they produce 
18v for the fan. And still power it when they start to run down
Do  search in Intructables.com for "Fume Extractor"
If you can't find it email me offsite at [email protected] and I will try and 
send my copy,if I can find it.
