Ok so this is how its looking now with the ballasts in place.. however I want to elevate them to allow sufficient air flow once I add fans to each compartment in the not so distant future :) so... - STELTHY

I bought some nuts and bolts and some small washers from my local hardware store .. I placed the bolts in the holes I had drilled from the under each shelf.. and placed a series of nuts and washer's on each bolt to elevate the ballasts .. - STELTHY

Next I knabbed some insulated foam tape from my mate, who works installing AC units... don't worry he'll come into play again later when I mod the loft etc :) but for now as it was surgested to me a while ago on this thread I should use foam etc to keep vibration's from the in-line fan etc to a bare minimal.. - STELTHY

I removed the block on which I had the in-line fan sitting on, sprayed it black.. and added a strip of the insulated foam to both the top and the under-side and replaced it and fastened it in place again with long bolts etc.. :) - STELTHY

I measured the back of the wall mountable stereo and used an off cut as a backing I sprayed it... black :) .. and then screwed in some small 'L' brackets, a anti- vibration strip and some smaller front face 'L' brackets as support ... - STELTHY

And here's the bad boy stereo in place... I will prob. make a mounting shelf for the CCTV monitor next, finish my wiring (still) and then make the coffin/box for the top section, I am off out to BBQ for some home made blunts and a swap meat style do, I gotta enjoy the sun whilst we have it :) , more updates coming soon - STELTHY

stelthy you are a saint sent by the grow cab goddess to help us in need of weed. Good Job man!
I just recently started my Grow cab and have been following along with your thread., It's small enough for 3, 5 gal pots. and a 400 watt hps.
So far I've got everything in place, and were i want it to be. now it's just time to put in the labor hours and installing all the fans and carbon filter ect.
What did you use to cut exact holes? what type of drill did you use?

Hi dude, I just used a standard SDS drill... no actually I just used a standard drill + bit. It was given to me when my last one caught alight after I attached a circ. hole-saw attachment to it lol, anyhow yeah just a normal drill, What do you need to drill ? I'll check out your cab in a min :) - STELTHY

This was the sheet of measurements I came up with to make the top box for my Stealth-Cab, I think I made a mistake on one of the measurements but only time will tell... and if I'am out I'll either get the measurement re-cut or I'll buy a new section that's the correct size. I don't usually make mistakes but I had a fair few beers for lunch and am pretty sure I 'fluffed' one of the measurements I made :( nevermind anyway :) - STELTHY

This is a rough idea at what I am aiming for as far as design goes :) I will probably still add extra thing's, for eg. Hydrolic arms on the front facing pannel to hold it up when I need to work/adjust my kit.. ( the kind you get to hold a car boot up with). I need to add a few things to my shopping list, and I also think I'll add a few more CPU fans in various places to help push the Carbon Filter's exhaust away from being directly vented against the ceiling of my room, I may mod the box when I am done to push the exhaust forwards instead of up :) - STELTHY
