 My new work station! -- Flow hood content.  10

Decided last week It was time to step up my game. Making too many shrooms becomes boring at some point...one must become capable of making orders of magnitude more than too many..
So I whipped this up mostly yesterday and finished up some final touches today. Seems like a daunting bit of work to do in 24 hours but the clock was ticking and I may or may not have had the whole thing 3D modeled to the thousandth of an inch and most materials and tools ready to go.
Shes 48" by 18" with 2 - 500 CFM fans feeding me some 99.999 air. Quite the step up from my MERV 14 furnace filter flow hood I been rocking the past two years. All said and done it served me well and I did a lot of work in front of it, however the 30" by 15" wasn't cutting it. Plus, due to the way I built it, I really only had like 10" of clear height to work ( super PITA G2G ) and no option to work bags.
Now I feel like I can host a soccer game in this thing ( and be covid safe with the fans on ).
Really happy how it all turned out and cant wait to get pumping. I do have one final touch left, a lexan panel will be bridging between the 2 angled surfaces on the top of each side panel. Lighting is 7 watt mini recessed LED's that are steer-able. Also got my speed controller for fine tuning as just below full speed seems 
Now just to wonder why I waited till now.

Well, dont hate but I really took my time waiting for the right deal on filters and so I only got about $400 into this and still have another identical sealed filter as well.
Granted I already had the blowers so it was a matter of building materials other than filters.

To sweeten the deal, my significant other also relented on giving me an entire bedroom 20' x 12' with closet and an additional cedar closet 8x4.

That is pretty sexy. One day...
Your orders of magnitude thing got me thinking, has anybody ever done a contest here like lagm but who can produce the most weight in say 3 months starting from spores??
There’d be a sudden spike in grain and tote sales the way some of you guys here roll.
I guess a more realistic way would be to limit it to like 15 quart jars at a time though.

Man would you look at that! This is really great!
I just finished my second flow hood, it's in my sig - I made a smaller hood I can move around. I put a grate on the front to protect the filter.
If I think you did an amazing job !

That's a sick build man. Is that stainless or aluminium top?
I really need to upgrade from SAB.

I opted for aluminum for $40. Rather than the same size piece for $125.
Also yeah, this may be many things, portable is not one of them..

Even better. Means your workspace is dedicated to it. As soon as things are too portable, I tend to shuffle them around too much.

It also means if my relationship takes a dump I'll need a forklift and construction crew to remove my shit from my house when leaving.

This is a thing of beauty. Very nice job. Love the alum top.
My partner just asked me to go spend like 8 grand on a separate out build so I stop growing in the house.....
I don't know if I am happy or sad, but I guess it is time to get my edible game back on. If your gonna spend money on anything, it should make money and I don't deal I just grow and toss the excess in the field....
