I was inspired by another guy on here that was constructing a dual 150watt grow box. So I decided to do the same, its not like I use the dresser much anyways most of the time my clothes are in a basket or on my bed.

Here's some photographs of the construction

The cabinet has 7 drawers, after I finished the 3 on the left side still function normally and I cut the middle on in half and reattached the drawer slide so it also works.

more pics of my hidden grow box


also I picked up a $1.12 vase from walmart and dremeled off the bottom so i can use it as a cool tube for my little 150w MH bulb

I'm not sure how well it will work, but time will tell once I get everything set up

It's been a while since I have had time to work on this again but here are some updates

I purchased one of those tiny walmart fans for like 3 bucks and also a 5" pvc pipe

My plan is to use this fan for cooling inside the dresser, I've sawed away sections of the pvc to allow airflow to the fan blades themselves, I hot glued them in place, and I am currently gorilla gluing them on the fan so it will be a permanent attachment.

I plan on using this as my exhaust fan for my whole space which measures 21"x14"x22"

pretty wicked. be careful with that vase some glass cracks/explodes when it gets really hot thats why cool tubes are made out of pyrex.

if thats tin foil your using get it out of there, get some mylar of just paint the inside with some white mat paint... the foil creates hot spots but looking good man will be following this thread

interesting...I need to build my veg "room" and this could work. Well, I will need one as soon as my now current veg room becomes the bud room.

Yeah I saw those emergency blankets at Wallyverse. I also found some christmas paper with shiny mylar on the back that was actually a lot higher quality than the blankets. Try and find some of that stuff!! lookin good though:joint::joint:
