Hey everyone here in the DIY section
as a huge fan of home made grow cabinet I wanted to start a "show-off" thread so people can post pictures of their projects, personally I love looking at grow cabinets and closets and see how people have design theirs, solved different problems and then gotten to enjoy the final results because often those boxes can be a work off art
So here is mine and some short description with it
The cabinet is 110 cm high, 65 cm deep and 100 cm long
3,6 feet 2,1 feet 3,2 feet
It build around a 4,5x4,5 cm thick frame that is also insulated with sound proof rockwool, it sits on 6 legs that have rubber soles and on top sits a 56 liter aquarium to stop it from vibrating
The cabinet has one active air outlet and two passive air intakes but now I have a small wooden frame sitting on to of the right air intake and inside it is a small inline booster fan that blows air up into my air pump that is suspended by rubber bands, keeps my nutrition solution at maximum 22c/72f because the environment inside is colder then the actual cabinet, the frame is then covered with speaker egg crate insulation on the inside and mylar on the sides and top, also lets me run my pump on full power with out creating to much noise
Inside it I have a single 155W LED light and two 65W CFL, a 600L/hour hailea 4 output air pump, a 4" carbon filter and a 4" inline fan inside a insulated box that is connected to a 6" PVC pipe that I stuck speaker insulation in, as long as its more then a meter long it will completely silence the sound of the fan, I am growing in two 14 liter totes I got from IKEA, they are both made out of PP plastic and thick enough to be light prove, only problem was to light proof the top lid but I use mylar for that and under the totes I have 5 cm / 2 inch thick layer of soft foam to kill the vibration going into the cabinet and the floor
I hope I going to see more people post and I am even going to contact some people I know build their own and see if I can get them to post
