Cracked Fruiting Chamber. Opinions?
    #20602314 - 09/22/14 05:26 PM (10 years, 3 months ago)

So I went out and picked up a 1/4" drill bit today and went to work on this plastic tote I got. Anyway, for the most part it went pretty well. A few small cracks in the sides and bottom, but nothing that would effect the size of the hole. But that brings me to the lid of the tote. that area cracked more than the others, and pieces of the plastic actually chipped and broke off while drilling the hole. theres also a crack directly in the middle of the top that splits off to a few of the holes. i dont drive or have access to a home depot or lowes near me, so its gonna be tough to get another lid. is there a way i can ghetto rig this thing or is it okay to move forward like this??

thanks!!

Well, I mean, you could get another lid, or maybe glue it. Point is, seal up the crack so it's not leaking air.

The SGFC is designed to allow air circulation. A small crack in the lid would most likely have an imperceivable impact. Fix it if it bothers you. I don't think it will matter either way.
