I've started building this...I was wondering where you can get those latches and hinges for the door. Do you have a close up pic of them?
Thanks.
I picked them up at the big orange store. Go to the cabinet hardware area there are different types and styles to choose from. I used what they call a piano hinge i had already but you could get by with just a normal hinge setup.

I would use smaller fans the bigger ones just pulled to much air though it.

Okay...so I've pretty much got this thing built...very similar to yours Sparky, except I'm using a 100 watt incandescent, and a MSC. I built the two chambers on the top and bottom(The ones with the holes...) using the kind of flooring with the holes already in it (pressboard?). The problem is that my temps are not getting high enough. 71 degrees is the max in 24 hours. My intake air is quite cool at 67 degrees. What is yours?
I've been wondering if the board I used has too many holes in it to allow the air to mix in the bottom of the cabinet, or my intake air is too cool, or a combination of both? How much of an improvement do you think it would be to add the fins to the coffee can like AL B. suggested.
I'm also thinking about using a 150 watt bulb. Do you think that would make much of a difference? Could you also let me know of any other suggestions for the dryer?
Thanks.

I am going to ignore Mr Bugs for he is just a bitter old cloner with lots of time on his hands since he burnt his grow down and he is just being coy for he needs this valuable info as well.

I would cut some fins it seemed to help and try a bigger bulb and adjust with a dimmer to get the right temp. Remember because of different temps and humidity in different areas your going to have to do a trial and error with this and what works now wont work for summer so bigger bulb adjust air flow use your temp guage and let her go.

Bugs GFY LOL :hug:

Thanks.
I figured I'd have to experiment with this and that...I think I'm gonna try increasing intake temp(from veg room), and plugging
a lot of those holes in the boards...then take it from there.:-?
I'll post my progress...lol
