lol, nice job with the ac, i have the same idea.
Yeah! it just turned out that the fan was facing the AC... and I really don't want to vent in or out of this hotel room... that would prob get me busted...lol...
I can just crack the window and suck cold air in... but the AC is RIGHT THERE..!!!...lol..
oh! and it works too!!!! My light's exhaust is at 62F...!!!! 62F after cooling the light!!!!!
Right now I have that rigged as an intake..!!! as it is colder than the temps I am shooting for... bonus..!!!

So lucky you, nice tent. I paid for my tent and i can see foro the cost of some pvc and some tarp and some zippers i could ge tthe same effect.
You have a much better finished product...
By the time I make the tenth tent, it will be comparable, as you say...
Right now I have all of the function... but yours looks better...
My plastic is not 100% wrinkle free... you can see duct tape everywhere... it is not a professional job by any stretch of the imagination... I basically "gift wrapped" the frame...
and my zippers are very flimsy, even though they cost an arm and a leg...
as for the frame... I went with steel tubing... 36 x 20 x 60 wardrobe, $25 @ walmart...

Did you just screw on some flanges?i am wondering if they sag har at the tent.
I cut the holes, in "pizza slices", if you will... so when I stuck the duct through, there were 8 triangles following the pipe out... I just taped it in place...
The intake and exhaust have flanges... secured with "worm" clamps... stiff plastic was used as a backing material...
As for sagging... there really isn't any...
I choose semi rigid ducting, so it would hold straight between the light and the fan, even if the tent was not there... no sag/no weight on the tent...
does that make any sense...

That my only concern form building my own. Also are you going to do mylar, i am now wishing and thinking of hanging some.
No mylar for me... too easy to not do it perfect and get hot spots...
Flat white is around 87% reflective... that is plenty for me... I have a strong light... no hot spots for me thanks...

Prob on some pvc and cardboard placards or fake "walls". After seeing what clean white can do I cant wait to see mylar
I'd stick with the white...
Actually I'd use what I used... 6MIL B&W Panda Film... took $11 worth of it to do my tent....
Just my opinion... I don't know shit really... so go with what you know...
Cheers...
