My Self Built Stealth Cabinet Grow (how to build a cab) My Pride And Joy

You could buy ten of them and they won't work. Something called static pressure. Just buy one real fan and be done with it. Vortex, Sunleaves, etc.

I'm thinkin ur right man... they suck big time.. i dont get it tho... especially when the box says 250 cfms lol
 
I've read most of your thread.
Nice cabinet design, you definitely have some carpentry talent.
I read that your gonna put this beast in a 12 X 14 bedroom, and it's gonna be stealth. Hmmm????
What are you going to put on the outside of the cabinet to make it stealthy? Cuz, what you've got now looks like a grow cabinet.
 
Relly like your cab, want to build one of my own to fit 2 4x4 treys. I want to do 2 600 Watts. Would you suggest to build a shelf at the top where I can put my ballest and fans and such. I am just planning on building a flower room, no veg room, I already have a closet for that.
 
Pick up an S&P fan at hvacquick.com. They are pretty good, cheap, and quite, i use 3.

see the ballast on the fans...

and about the shelf...i use one but i wanted by cab fully contained. I jut helped a guy here in Vegas build a cab and we placed all fans, AC box, dehumidifier in the attic. We did a 4x4 vert setup /2 600s so we needed the height. Remotely placing all this stuff cuts down on noise as well. So there are 4 4"ducts going from the cab to the attic, to make it look cleaner all 4 were ran inside a single 8" duct. I dont have pics but will try to get some. I even have my C02 tank in there...

see the door that's insulated over fan/ballast chamber to stop noise. Also make sure there is decent airflow...

ok ok ok ... sorry guys I haven't been on that much... the last couple days has been hell ... ha...

well i'll post a lil update here,,, (gotta go get ready for work) or i'm gonna be late... tonight i'll post pics and such...
well I ended up keeping the 6" home depot inline fane was experimenting a little bit and came up with a solution to make it work... I have a few halogen work lights that get really hot in the garage... So I set them in the cab in did 10 minute experiments on about 6 ways of mounting the blower I finally camp up with a way that took the temp down to low 70degrees... which initially was 100 ... just a little common sence (the less bends in y our ducting the more air she'll move... so I mounted it straight up and down hanging out the top of the veg room floor flowing up into the hidden room and 90 degreed it out the back... it now has enough force to blow open my exaust flaps and took my temps down... plus I got this really awesome osc fan yester day 12" omg is it nice... sorry gotta go get ready now lol i'll be on tonight after 5 peeps... vapor... clowdy, wildfire, i'll talk to you guys later :)
