WHAB’s 1924 Brick Schoolhouse RDWC

I have mine mounted to the wall in my closet and the only time I hear anything is when I’m in the room where the grow is. I haven’t heard it anywhere in my house so far and I live in a double wide.

Haven’t mounted mine yet waiting for tent to get here today! I got the flexpipe from them just so could get free shipping when got the tent! Also got the controller with my 6 in inline bc liked the one that came with airplates in stealth cab I got. Anything from them has arrived a day early. Everyone is getting a bunch of free money so might change your delivery time a bit thou.

I just opened the box the 25 foot ducting shipped in. It was in a box in that box. It does look like if I were to open it it would be worse than putting a Jack-In-The-Box back in the box! ROFLMAO

Amazing work you are doing, like a modern version of the labours of Hercules.
When I laid eyes on your Festool saw and other tools I figured it was going to be very interesting ~ sure has! :+1:
Are you planning on insulation upgrades?

Cheers

Thank you, @Gpaw tup

Yes, insulation is planned in the attic. I still have some things that must be done before insulation can get done. The Fascia is practically non-existent, at least on 3 sides. Air Conditioning also needs to be installed. Then, I plan to build a grow space up there and I don’t know how that is going to fit into any of the other things.

Ethier way this would take me four times longer than it will you and still be rough around the edges! Your a go getter that’s forsure!

The ground was thawed, the rocks were not!

When I got back from my COVID vaccine shot we tackled the mailbox (would have been nice to have had it when they shoved nearly 19lbs of Mega Crop fertilizer in the old one! facepalm biggrin).

I made the mailbox post on my brother’s antique Stanley Mitre Box when I didn’t have any of my tools here. The joint is half-lapped. It came out pretty well (Dang! I just noticed the stainless steel pyramid cap didn’t get put on the post…gonna have to get that done!). The mailbox is attached to the post by a piece of nearly 100 year old Oak flooring joist out of the 1924 Schoolhouse. Still need to tamp the ground around it down some more. A beautiful day outdoors!

I tried to find these V V V locally. No avail. I tried 4 or 5 local “building supply” establishments :facepalm: I got these while I was ‘in town’ (a place nearly 1 hour away) getting my shot (1/2 hour total time (Including 15 minute hold), very efficient operation - Thank you VAMC!)…

Just waiting on the AC Infinity CLOUDLINE T6 6” Inline Duct Fan to match it up with! winky . I see it is sitting in that ‘town’ mentioned above. Hoping it will make it here tomorrow instead of Monday as Amazon and UPS are showing in their tracking.

Gonna get the loft cleaned up, along with the bench in the picture and the woodshop in general - more specifically, the loft, though…it’s still thrashed.

Also, preparing to close up the space after getting the ventilation installed (it’s sitting at 80°F with it opened up and that booster ran running). I’m still pondering how to increase the space, at least to the North wall, and close it up. 2 more days at max before I do close it up and switch the ladies to Veg. The first ones I put in the Ebb&Gro are coming around after I failed at trying to kill them! crazy ROFLMAO . The one Tangerine Dream x C99 is bushing out!

Mine took 2 hour 10min. But they got backed up an hour after someone had a reaction. I am guessing a hypo as the the people bringing in the stretcher for the ambulance did act like their was an issues. That said, I talked to the Pharmacist giving the shout and they were doing 1,700 that day. They only normally were doing 1,200 per clinic. I shopped while waiting to be called so no problem for me.
which did you get?

There was a stretcher nearby where I was too. I’m not sure of the numbers they were doing. They have been at it for about a month, they told me.

Moderna.

I’ve been dealing with my back issues since my last post. I did get my first line of security in place Saturday evening, a Schlage Double Cylinder Deadbolt. I still have to install the aftermarket Reinforced Striker Plate…just need to mortise it in. It uses 6 long screws that reach through the door jamb and in to the Jack Stud.

IF you are unfamiliar, a Double Cylinder Deadbolt uses a key on both sides of the door. I have installed several in places where I have lived.

IF a thief does gain entry into your space, they’ll pile up their loot at the door but when they try to exit out that door (or any door so equipped) they realize they need a key, which they don’t have, to get out. They are left with having to exit out their entry point (other than that door, if that door is their attempted entry point they’ll realize sooner than they can’t even get in), most often empty handed.

I did vacuum the thrashed loft. Still have some minor detail work to complete the clean up. Will try and get that done tonight.

Then, I did receive the “AC Infinity CLOUDLINE T6, Quiet 6” Inline Duct Fan with Temperature Humidity Controller” this afternoon.

However, I’m sure it doesn’t mean anything but, the User Manual arrived upside down…I’m hoping it’s not a omen of bad things! winky

I bought both metal (plumbing tape) and plastic hanger straps. I think I’ll use the plastic strapping because it is less likely to wear into the ducting whereas metal strapping (plumbing tape) certainly will over time. IF I do wind up using the plumbing tape I’ll line it with rubber to reduce the potential of wearing through.

So, I am going to get that installed today.

I’m still pondering how I’m going to close this space up. My Thought Process Machine is having a difficult time getting everything laid out to make sure all the equipment/gear can still be serviceable. Once I have that tall East wall installed the Ebb&Gro controller will be difficult to get to. I would like to put the Air Conditioner right next to where the controller is now and route the Intake&Exhaust hoses out the ceiling panel there as well. But, when that East wall is installed they’ll both be difficult to get to to service them. I don’t want either one IN the grow space. It looks like I will have to build in an access panel/door on that wall to get to them. I can’t move them to the West side of the space because the reservoir is directly under the controller now and that is the best place to have that. I still have time to figure that out but I need move the A/C to that side and I still have to figure out a way to block a light leak created where the Fill&Drain hoses pass through the P&S (Poly Shield) sheeting.

One possibility is to lay a piece of plush cloth (like a bath towel) on top of the hoses where it passes through to the buckets and put a piece of wood on to of it the force the shape of the pass through (I think this will work). Another possibility I’ve been toying with is creating a physical manifold cover plate with the 6 hoses individually surrounded…like at wooden plate with cut-outs for each hose (I think this is what I will wind up with). Maybe a combination of both the cloth closure and the hose pass-through plate.

IF any of you have any ideas on how to best prevent that potential light leak I’d be willing to consider them.

I’m goin’ in! winky

Hahah That’s how I felt too. Anyone with festool stuff is definitely gonna produce some quality work.

I only have hand me down tools really. I just need to start working for myself so I can make the full amount, the. I can afford some festool stuff.

I love that security plate and those double deadbolts!

I think your idea with the wooden manifold sounds great. Just feed the tubes through and fill it with some opaque caulk or similar. Should work fine imo.

Cheers friend
