Ok - here's some shots of the equipment. The blury brown boxes are the cabinet. Note the MH bulb... I think it'll be too fat to fit in the bake-a-round. Trying to find specific measurements on-line. Bake-a-round should be here early next week. If it won't fit.. maybe I could just mount it somehow in the cab and have the exhaust duct sucking right next to it. Not sure if that'll work or not.

Should be able to start the buil mid-next week.

Bake a rounds are 4 inches across, Sorry to tell you that football is not going to fit in there. Standard cool tubes are six inches across.

Ya, I didn't think so. Oh well, I'll have to see what I can do. I do have a regular 6" cooltube, but it's in my flowering tent right now with my 250 hps. Not sure I want to go through the hassle of changing everything so I can veg for a couple weeks under MH. I may end up just running the HPS in the DIY coolube on 18/6 till I've got all my cloning finished and I'm ready to switch to flower. Save the MH bulb for down the road once I condense my current flowering tent into the new cabinet. Then replace the DIY with the "real cooltube".

Are all wattage MH bulbs that fat?

Naw, There are a few companys that make them in smaller sizes heres a link:
http://www.specialty-lights.com/metalhalide400.html

My opinion is the time in veg to prepare for flower isn't worth the trouble.
If I was growing 5 or 6 foot plants well ya then it may be worth it but floros will veg a plant to a foot tall nicely.
Then if I want more size I veg with the HPS. Works fine.

If you were going to flower in all three areas and wanted to veg them all together then ya I would use it.
I just figure it is a back up in case the bulb burns out. I have a cheap reflector for mine.

Ok.. houseguests are gone, planted some rooted clones for the current flowering tent this afternoon and I'm moving on to re-arranging furniture in the room I'm using to accommodate the new cabinet.

Hope to get that done tonight and then start putting the cabinet together tomorrow or Wed. Bake A Round showed up and as we noted, will not fit the MH I bought. To make things easy, I'm going to proceed with configuring the cabinet with the 4" DIY cooltube and HPS.

Feels like I'm going in slow motion! I want to be up and running so bad.

Make sure you pick a wall to mount it against. Its not a free standing job.

I had thought about putting the cabinet at an angle in a corner of the room to give some more space for air behind the cabinet. It won't stand up by itself??

Well you could angle it but you need a brace of some sort.
Sure it will stand by itself but I had trouble with the door swing until I mounted it to the wall. It has levelers on the bottom but I couldnt get it right. (i am kinda picky) Beside its much safer.

The solid welded cabinets don't have this issue but they are $700 and up.
Actually I didn't realize it until after I got it but still a bracket isn't much.

Thanks for the tip! I will get something similar to what I used to secure the large furniture in kids rooms to the wall. Like a strap or bracket that secures to the cabinet and a wall stud.
