I made a thermostatic power setup like that but I went for the bling and got a digital one. LOL It's funny I just made a carbon filter today. Never even thought about the stupid shop vac... I made a tube out of 2"x4" fencing, wrapped it w carbon wrap, then a foam air conditioner filter. Just poured the activated carbon in between the foam and the wrap. Same shitmore work to make. I like your idea better. You must be a milright or a maintenance person or just mechanically inclined like myself. It's cool to be able to build what ya need with junk that's laying around! Keep it going I wanna see what you came up with.

I have a couple of quick questions which im sure you will answer in future posts. But I just want to know.

1) what fan are you going to be connecting to the carbon filter?
2) what grow set up are you going to be using? (Aero, DWC, EBB, ECT.)
3) how big is the cab going to be?
4) are you going to scrog it?
5) what type of light are you going to use?

Hey bud,

Thanks for stopping by.to answer your questions the best i can at this time as things are always up for changes.

The carbon filter will prob be hooked up to a 4 inch inline on the thermostat controled outlet that i showed how to build.

im gonna attempt to run a 400 watt hps in flower area,and an led in the mother quarters.the 400 will be air cooled.

swc for the flowering area and soil for the mothers.

Its very possible i may scrog it but most lilely it will be low stress training to some degree.

Hope this helps answer some of your questions.

Ok so i know its been awhile since posted on here,but it all starts now.i got busy with life etc etc etc!
was gonna build a cab to house moms and clones on one side and flowering and veg on the other.
Well of late my moms have been running out of room so heres the deal.im still gonna build a flowering and veg cab but ineed a new mom cab first.

i got all the materials now so ill do these back to back since everyone has waited so long


.

for those of you who want to use screws feel free.i want these to blend in with my house like a fine piece of furniture.
That being said i use dowels,and glue to pin everything together.if you go to the depot an try and buy a 3'by 4' by 3/4 " furniture grad wood your going to pay about 40 bucks a pop.......

Um i dont think so lol...so heres how i join 1"by 4"by 6' long boards together to make the panels for the cabs.total for all the wood minus the molding wich i havnt gotten yet was 45.00.
You just have to put the labor into it to get them together.

In the first two pics i just have the wood layed out to show what im working with.

I stand all the wood on its side,and square the ends up with a carpenters square.only try and square one end!!! the wood varies a lil in size so if you try ,and square both sides you will rip your hair out.

After you have the one end squared up.i then take a clamp,and clamp the end i squared up.after that clamp the other end.
I put 6 dowels in 6 foot board you can use however many you want.
Now to get the marks for where to drill all i do is measure 2" in from each end and space the others in between.
Now take your capenters square,and place along the side so small end lays across the top of clamped wood.draw a line all the way across and you have lines for your drilling jig.

This is the jig i use.it came from lowes

And here is the jig attached to one piece of wood ready to be drilled.

Now in this pic you can see the two pieces i drilled one had the dowels glued down in the other has a bead of glue and the matching corosponding holes that will line up with the dowel on the other piece.

Take your two pieces an stick them together,and put clamps on to tighten up and hold in place.
Ill repeat this process untill my boards are the size i want.

I got all the pieces together tonight. so tomorrow i will cut them down to size,and we can start puting the mom cab together.

For anyone who doesnt grasp this i will try and explain better if need be.just ask)

Later KMK
