Welcome to my first thread. First, I should thank all of the good people here at Rollitup who have helped me to learn so much in a short time.
I started to plan for this wardrobe cabinet and grow back in Jan 2010 but didnt actually get started until the cab arrived in late Feb. I ordered this cab and had to wait 3 weeks until it was delivered which gave me a lot of time to think about what I was going to do .maybe too much time. I changed my plans several times but eventually got a fairly good idea of what I wanted to do.
Mostly, I want it be stealthy. It needs to be quiet and look like it belongs in my bedroom. I am also a bit lazy so it needs to be as self sustaining as possible.
I welcome all comments and questions so fire away!
First pic is the cab as it was meant to be built. I decided to not use the divider and shelves so I would have room to grow 3-4 plants up to three feet or a little taller. I think it was a good choice and later I will tell you why.
It finally was delivered about the third week of Feb but without any of the hardware except for the hinges and door magnets. No problem . Ill get started.
The basic shell is assembled. I added a few angle clips to the bottom side for strength. BTW, I had very few tools to do this. I had a Skilsaw, cordless drill, a pair of Kleins pliers, hammer, tape measure, some bits and a couple of screwdrivers. Oh yeah, and a Swiss army knife.
I started gluing strips of 1/8 polyfoam made for door thresholds to the inside with 3M adhesive spray. I made sure that the polyfoam covered the places where the fans will be cut in.
Be back soon with the next post.
