Alright, let's see what you think about my new construction...

My goal was to build a white cabinet that is not immediately visible when entering the bedroom, has room for app. 4 plants and does not make too much noise.

The blueprint: [attachment=o83008]

Materials:

Flake board 19mm

2x 1800mm x 450mm (Doors)

Wooden frame - 35mmx35mm
4x 1692mm
2x 700mm
2x 830mm

Supporting column in the middle of the door 1cmx 4cm (ca.), 1692mm

- Ventilation/ Supply air (for door)
- 6 hinges
- Wooden screws
- Wood glue
- Screws
- Foam tape
- Wheels
- White primer
- White paint
- Black-and-white foil
- Neoprene cuffs
- Hooks etc.

The system:

- 410 m3/h ventilation
- 500 m3/h carbon filter
- Industria 400W HPS
- Relaix clock timer for ventilation
- Dimmer for ventilation
- additional ventilator on ground

Building the cupboard:

I asked to have the wood cut to size in the DIY store and brought them home with much difficulty. The frame I only had app. the right size, wanting to cut it to the correct size when at home.

First I connected the frame to the top and bottom, leaving 19mm on each of the sides to ensure space for the sides. The frame was forst connected with wooden screws, then placed on the top piece of wood and attached by drilling through the frame into the wood, adding glue and wooden screws. I then turned the whole thing around and added regular screws form the other side.

I did this for the top and bottom, then took the muffler to draw the correct size hole and cut that out, followed by attaching the wheels to the bottom.

Then I started on the sides. Since I was working on my own, I again attached theframe directly to the sides, preparing wooden screws again on the end pieced to be able to attach it to the top frame later. In one of the sides I added the passice intake ventilation.

I then sorted all pieces so that the back side was on top and put the four sides together - first with wooden screws, then with regular screws attached from the outside, making sure to hit the frame as well as the board.

Now I had a huge cupboard lying in my kitchen... a real monster... and I couldn't get it up on my own. Small weak woman etc etc etc - I eventually succeeded by leaning the thing against the door frame and stemming it against that. Never again!
