I use a fire curtain to minimize the airborne travel.

Thanks for the pic Vince. Your setup is similar to what I've seen in the past. How well does it work for you? Drafts around the doors is a great point easily overlooked until it becomes an issue. My new building looks very similar to the structure you are working in. One thought was doing something similar with 3 sides of tall curtains and it looks like your tall curtain hangs about 3' ish down so that should give decent ventilation.
My biggest thought is to minimize the "float" that is inherent with shops and contain as much of the grinding dust as possible. In the little shop I kept all the shiny cars covered while in the shop but that can be problematic also.
