MY semi-DIY STEALTH Cabinet! Version 2.0!

Love it ... +Rep for a nice clean tidy looking box :)

I'm getting something like it next week so i can set up a Mother / Clone / Veg Station all in one . I'm going to try an idea i seen here for the air intake that looks and sounds as if it could have a huge benifit for air cuirculation ... The Air Floor :)

Looking good so far though bro :)

Check my Journal next week and see if i can make m=ine as nice and shiny as yours :)

V :peace:

Thanks man! I have to say after putting that mylar up... I hate it. I used some spray adhesive and if it falls I think I'm just gonna paint the walls white.
 
Thats a nice cabby, but you are most likeley to have heat issues. Even with that nice fan. Im doing a lot of research on venting at the moment. The problem I see is that your cabby is in a closet. Now I don't know if there is an A/C vent in your closet, but if you don't vent away from the room the passive intake will be pulling in the hot air through that you just vented out. With your light profing intake, I would just use two elbows and make an s shape or an turn s shape. Uses up less space. Your best bet for growing is sog maybe. Just a thought.

I think that would take up more space because it's 4in ducting. There is a vent in my closet so no need to worry about the heat, I'm thinking.
 
light proof.jpgMan, see it's one of those thing you have see in person. This is a bad picture of what I'm talking about. Have the elbow come in normal, but then have another face the front or have it the opsite way. But I'm kinda against having a single fan pull from light as well as an filiter. People state that this kinda of exhaust system works... so I believe them, but I know it would not work for me.
 
That's why you build to fit your needs. I Know what your are talking about and I think both ways would probably end up using the same amount of space.
 
I finished making the Pro DIY carbon filter now all I have to do is fill it with carbon and put 'er in the cab.

Looks great dude.I might have to order a filter built by u.
 
Nice cab man...might i ask how you put up your mylar?...its so smooth and refelctive...is it 1 mil or 2 mil?

Thanks.
 
Thanks...Was it easy?Let me know how it works out for you.

It was pretty simple but putting the pantyhose on it was kinda tricky. I'll definitely let you know how it works.

It's 2mil. I used some spray adhesive, but I'm not to thrilled with it. The mylar is starting to come off I think... I'm gonna have to staple it up eventually I think. The spray adhesive is a mess to. It got all over my carpet and I was stepping in it, it looked like I had carpet socks on once I was done putting it up.

I've tried applying Mylar with some spray adhesive. It sounds easier than it actually is. And yes, causes a friggin mess. I started using Panda Film (or black and white wrap, whatever) because it's a little tougher than Mylar and can be stretched and stapled loads easier. It's more durable too. Just a thought for future reference. :D

Yeah, I don't like mylar... wish I would have had someone tell me to go with the poly when I was researching my build, but I never saw anyone mention how much of a pain mylar is.

You usually don't see that because most people that use it swear by it, I think anyway. I'd have chimed in but it looked like you already had it tacked up lol. It's good you were able to learn the difference on your own and not from someone else anyway. Personal experience is where it's at in this game.
 
That's what I'm starting to learn... ;)

Yep. It's more valuable to make mistakes and learn from them than have someone tell you IMO(save a few myths). If everything was explained and handed to you, you wouldn't know what to do when something finally went wrong. Of course reading, reading and more reading is where it all should start. Since this business is the way it is there is NEVER a lack of new information, bunk or not. I don't care who you are, how much experience you have or what you grow the education never stops.
 
I've actually been researching for close to 2 year now before I get a decent grow cab and grow going. I had a pc I grew in and it was just thrown together without much thought but wasn't able to finish for certain reasons. But now I'm ready and willing to wait to finish this cab to get a quality setup with minimal imperfections.
