Is This Cabinet Worth Converting?

I've converted a metal wardrobe and a few closets. The other day I took a new look at this old cabinet and thought, "Hey, maybe I can make something useful out of this junk!" I need a segregated space for male, sick plants, or new clones that I get from friends. (I've already got a fine flower space.) So, I should be able to get away with some CFLs.

What I have on hand:
  • one 4" duct fan
  • one recycled 4" computer fan
  • plenty of 4" duct
  • 4" flange
  • aluminum tape

It's a painted, metal, kitchen, wall cabinet.with 2 doors and one inside shelf. Pics are of the cabinet are on its "side" or "short end." In this position it measures 36" high, 13" deep, 13" and 18" wide. (Basically, 3ft x 1ft x 1.5ft

The inside shelf provides some support but is not structurally necessary. Although, removing the entire shelf might be difficult. I'll have to use a dremel tool and cut it out if I go that route.

Let's go small cab geniuses!!! What do ya think?

Thanks,

Zo

I think it could work fine, really you could even use it sideways and do like to or so plants with LST/scrog and it'd work pretty well
