Cool. I wish I could think of a design using less of the stuff; gonna cost a lot, especially the hardware parts.
is that the "width" of your canopy area? 24-36" or something?

my canopy is gonna be 28-30” x 72” x 2( 4 pots per
Light)
L shape
yes the hardware is expensive, those 8 corners especially pricey ,there is cheaper options tho, smaller versions etc
Nice and narrow to easily reach the whole canopy. Be about 15sq/ft "per canopy"/light section then, hey. Sounds cool man.

yep thats right, roughly 15 ft2 per light.
thanks man, ill be happy having the room back up and running
I'm "between things" right now too. Much longer than I thought. I'm missing the therapeutic value of being in the garden.
What's the longest length you've ordered from tnuts - I know - "more tnutz questions!?". I was thinking a single, full lentgh 96" piece would be a possible dead simple mounting mount for 'x' amount of qb132 or qb120 boards. They have holes near the center of the board - not centered, but one could maybe get away with just using a single bolt into a tnut. No heatsinks to worry about, no weight either.
I'm curious to see your build.

these current pieces are the longest i have ordered, im assuming 8` is doable
that idea could work well, simplistic too
What type of paint did you use to paint? thanks in advance.

i used flat white for the walls
and concrete paint for the floor( its used mostly outdoors on porches and steps apparently.
Have a great day

yes
I duno why, but it's hard to tell what orientation I'm looking at exactly in that pic. Is there a bunch of unused tnuts in part of a slot?

haha I flipped the pic upside down so it can be viewed as it will be hung.
none of the strips are fastened at all in that pic. Yes all tnutZ are in the slots waiting for me to put it together.

this build was def much much easier than my first builds. The wiring on those 2 lights was absurd.
this was a clean and quick build in comparison.
yes 3/4” schedule 40

hey buddy, thanks.
Yes I’m going back to coco. I enjoyed the aeroponics growing but in the end prefer coco most of all.
I also bought a bunch of the floraflex 6” pot pros to start running some mini sog grows.
hooe you are well. Take care
