    Using Reflectix for a reflector hood?

    Hey guys, I built a light fixture out of 8 Cree bulbs, 9w. It's a small box frame (I'll have to post pics later). I wanted to put a curved piece of Reflectix (the bubble kind) over the whole frame but wasn't sure if it would pose a fire hazard. There isn't a lot of room between the bulbs and the...

    PVC Tube for Bonsai Mother?

    Hey guys, I read somewhere about one guy using 6" PVC tubes to keep mothers in. Basically you would cap the bottom, probably drill some holes in it for air flow, put a pc fan at the top with a CFL/LED bulb in there. Seems like a pretty simple and cheap solution.

    Anyone ever make false cabinet fronts?

    I'm going to be growing in a smallish cabinet and I was thinking.. I wonder if it would look convincing if I took a bunch of boxes, like my Dremel box, my Ryobi grinder box, etc, and cut the fronts off about 1" deep and line the front with them. The cabinet I have is a heavy duty plastic and it...

    In-progress CFL light fixture with pc fan mount

    Alrighty, what's up guys? I built some light fixtures a week or so ago, check them out here: Well, I've been tweaking them a bit to make them more compact, and then I had an idea for mounting a 120mm PC fan to the PVC pipe: SPRINGS! Like those old-timey microphones. I really like the compact...
