Very nice build and thread, thanks for sharing !
Crossing my fingers for you, hoping no cob was harmed in posi-negi issue.

Thanks! It only seemed right to post this thread, without others doing the same I would have never figured this out or even probably known about it. about two months ago i stumbled over this site looking at some Mars grow journals... then i saw this biz and said hmmmmm can i do that... we'll see! then i went back to college at RIU University for a month to understand the how and why. Professors have all been great!
here's the link on the eye bolts. 5/16 x 5", thread protectors were in the next drawer over at the hardware store

Grade 5 welding glasses work pretty good, too.

When I cranked the pot down all the way and looked at my glass Jerry-lenses from the side, I was shocked at the bubbles/inclusions revealed. Also, every little smudge on the glass is visible. And I thought I was meticulous when I cleaned the inside of the lens with Zeiss alc wipes.

@Ronin-indi stumbled upon your thread cause my interest has peaked again about taking on a led project. Have to say that I'm impressed with what you've got going on. Keep up the hard work, and thanks for the pictures & info.

Looking good! You've got me trying to figure out what it would take/cost to build out my soon to be 16'×24' 2 story growing garage. Wanna grow my fruits & veggies on the ground floor 16'x16', then grow my meds on the 2nd floor.
