    well cut i hole in the top (exhaust) . and cut a hole in the bottom (intake)
    attach a fan to the top to PULL air OUT and a fan to the bottom to PUSH air IN. Not too hard eh. =)

    well High Intensity Discharge (HIDs) cost quite a bit and add more to your electricity bill. But they make growing alot easier and they produce alot BIGGER BUDS FASTER. But Compact florescent lights (CFLs [the twisty bulbs]) are CHEAP AND ENERGY EFFICIENT... but they take time to grow with... and you have alot of them.

    Thats a vague want but you need two holes, one for intake with a blower fan if going hid, and one for an outtake. You want the outake up top naturally as heat rises and the intake near the bottom. With that i dont think you need that much help with the design. Hid are superior to any indoor lighting, for 2 healthy plants a 250w hps light what work fine, and depending on where you live they should run you about 10 bucks a month. i wish i had some of that material, that shits great for sound proofing.

    Yeah we use it for building beer coolers , Dog houses and my brother built a practice room for his band . Also they reflect light really well . I have my design down , was just seeing what ya thought about the inner works of the system . im sure ill go for the HID .
