    Default New cupabord build

    OK so I've had to start a new cubaord all ready as I figured out the one I built isn't big enough to hold a couple of mothers and my heated propigator.
    Plus as I'm growing five strains at mo and there all finishing up at different times ????

    So for now it's going to be a drying room then a Pepsi challenge cupabord and finally mother room.

    The size is 1.8mtrs tall 700mm wide and 500mm deep

    When I baught this it was really flimsy so I had to weld three of the front corners to stiffen it up.

    For now I've managed to install sockets and fan and filter

    This all ready simple build has taken way longer than it should due to a few issues.

    One being the fan I ordered can smashed so I've had to gaffer tap it back togeather u till I find an alternative.

    The filter I ordered I thought the 300 was the length but no its the flow rate so is way longer than I wanted. Which isn't really a bad thi g as it should last a lot longer. Its a can o lite filter

    Once all is done I will paint the outside as its not very pretty ut for the moment it's functional.

    You may find the fan a little noisy attached like that. Often, hanging it with string/elastic takes out the vibration

    Thank you it will look better once it's painted and I've installed the light. Thinking of going with a 315w for the other flower chamber and use the ballest from that for this.

    I was surprised when I tried it. It wasn't any noise yer then just standing there but then it got two bolts holding it tight to the side of the cabinet.
    I have to deal with the noise from the flow of air but a si. Ple baffle will do the trick. M

    Looking sharp there CBD Captain

    I was also wondering about the sound, the circulation fan I mounted on the inside of my refrigerator caused a nasty resonance even with multiple rubber rings in between the fan mount and the fridge. Glad to read that you are not having any issues with the sound

    I really thought it would of been but bolting that down and maybe the wooden platform I put it on helped a lot
