Dresser Grow Cab Build / New Grow

[goten]

Well i got this old shitty dresser frame that im gonna try making a new cab out of

specs are

29" wide

15" deep

30" height

i wish it was a little more deeper but it will do

it needs a lot of work done to it

the back is all fucked up , cracked up and shit

but with a little time and patience it just might turn out to be something good

I busted the back out and got some plywood to replace it with

I also got a piece for the front that i will put on hinges

I will be using 2 ac fans for exhaust that i got from the Ganja Gods , and 1 ac fan for intake

The 1 ac fan that im using for intake moves more air then 1 of the ac exhaust fan

the 2 for exhaust moves 55 cfm , ( 110 between the 2 ) but maybe not that much now since their used and i dont know how old they are

The 1 for intake moves 90 cfm

The 2 fans on the left are the 55 cfm , and the 1 one the right is the 90 cfm

This is a work in progress so it will be a while before i get started on the grow

I will be using my 150w hps from my micro cab for this

I do not know yet what im gonna grow in their

I got plenty of time to decide while working on the cab

Well let the journey begin

Gonna go to sturdy the frame now ....

get a drill bit slightly smaller then screw then predrill

The smallest drill bit i have is roughly the same size

Plus my drill is not powerful enough , it goes dead quick then i got to let it charge again

its a shitty 7.2 v lol

Well i pretty much got the back done now

I still have to put mylar on it , but its pretty much done

I still have to work on the front and put hinges and shit on it

Its slowly coming along , but i still got a lot to do to it

well here are a few pics

the fans are not bolted on yet ,

their just sitting their so you can get a general idea of how it will look

im gonna hate messing with that damn mylar , ( emergency blanket creases lol )

 

[fabfun]

haha about the cam joke

if bit is same size just drill hole through board thaat u are attaching but not the one the screw is attaching to

I gotcha my man ( pilot holes )

Well this is just gonna be a difficult task for me

the top part of the dresser that is face forward is curved going across

my front will not fit flush because of this ,

well i go to take it off and the shit just simply bust apart , ugh

i will get it fixed the way i need it though

damn this shit is frustrating lol

 

[fabfun]

just take your time bro and dont get frustrated

I know my man , i know

I just put a stud across the top of the bottom with the help of wood glue and a couple of nails

The front fits flush on it now , and its wide enough to go over the part where the wood busted

I will post a pic after i attach the hinges and shit on it

im not going to fuck with it no more today

my frustration and irritation level is pretty up their right now lol

i will mess with it a little more tomorrow while my kids are in school
