As a 65-year old woman, I'm not very knowledgeable about building things. So I need your manly help, please!
I want to build a framework for holding lights, clip-on fans, scrog nets, etc., etc., etc. Kind of like the structure that holds up a grow tent. The dimensions have to be 5' deep x 10' wide x 6'-7' high. I previously built one 4x4x6 out of 3/4" PVC, and it was wobbly as hell. I need something affordable, that can be assembled and taken down easily, and is very sturdy.
It has to hold 90+ lbs. of LED lights (2 lights, each weighs 44 lbs., plus a 3rd light that weighs 8 lbs.), plus all the other stuff that gets attached to these grow spaces. And it has to span 10 feet in width.
Can anyone suggest materials that an old lady can work with, and a design that will be solid? I can measure, use a hand saw, hammer and screw, use a hand drill, and otherwise fasten parts together.
Whatcha got?
