  2. Very nice man! I like how you made the hang DIY hang system for the lightning. We are also both using the same exhaust fan :D
    How did you seal the door for odor and light-proofing? And are you gonna use a carbon filter?

    i removed doors and stapled touch and close fastener, for light it works for odor i dunno yet well we'll see [​IMG]
    regarding filter, yeah i am preparing a DIY carbon filter, waiting for activated carbons [​IMG]

    Subbed, topics with DIY pictures are the best [​IMG] Also nice idea to use the touch and close fastener. Im using weather striping at the moment and magnets to close the door.

  9. Since it's my first experience I don't have any fucking idea :rolleyes::D
     
  10. The door replacement, did you stitch the mylar to some fabric? Or where did you get the material?
     
  11. Hello, i made some upgrades you can see pics below. on pics above i stapled the folio barrier to a thick fabric. touch and close fastener as well.


    as you see pics below on 2nd attempt i use already clayed barrier and applied on fabric without staples and stitched fasteners to fabric.

    and stapled fastener to sides of the box, now 3mm thick folio barrier pushes the corners and box is more isolated.

    And to make it more comfortable to open i ve added 2 zippers to sides.

  12. What fabric is it? Was it something you had laying around or did you buy it somewhere? I'm trying to build a box but having hard times finding cheap thick fabric online.
     
  13. i bought it its just something like a jeans fabric


     
  14. Thanks
     
  15. Nice build I like it.
