> RF dead chambers are bloody expensive for a reason: you can't emulate them by pasting some paint on a wall.

Couldn't you just stick yourself in a metal box (with a metal door that is careful to get a good seal)?

Well yeah, that's what those chambers are. Except it's a bit more complicated to do than "just" :)

How do you propose to breathe in there?

By opening the door when not in use.

If you need continuous use, two rooms. One that acts as an "airlock" with an outer door that is open only when the door to the other room is closed. Battery operated fans and lights used as necessary.

Note that the "inner room" might be as small as a ammo crate depending on your use case.
