Thanks RR.
Well since that won't work I have another dilemma, I was looking around for an h14 hepa filter and all the sites i went on require my info including what company I'm from. Since I'm just working from home for my personal adventures, any advice on how to get around putting my info out when purchasing one?

there is nothing illegal about a hepa filter

Dear Ohmatic
I've read, re-read, and re-read your monotub TEK.
I was wondering if you may be so kind and gracious as to elaborate on a few things via IRC chat, private email or even in a forum post.
I've got grain bags in spawn run and I want to follow your TEK to the letter but some of the steps are a bit vague.
I would really appreciate your time.

wrong thread but they aren't vague they literally are that simple and i think leaving out stuff like "--now open your bag--" doesnt really confuse ppl.

Hi
First I'll comment on the topic at hand. Your flow hood design is bad ass! You used to not use proper sterile technique (I know because I've read your original spawnbag tek)
What motivated you to build this flow hood? Has it helped you get better results?
I've had very bad luck trying to get spawn bags to colonize. They mostly get contaminated with bacillus (sweet fruity smelling bacteria). Even the ones I've bought from sporeworks. I'm considering building a Laminar Flow-Hood like this one. I just finished building a glove box I'll see if that helps me out, but I've had some bad luck even with injecting store-bought, sealed, "guaranteed," grain bags.
I apologize for using the wrong thread, I wanted to post to a newer thread so you would see it.
I have specific questions regarding your monotub tek:
1.) How much grain spawn did you use? 2.) Did you mix your grain spawn, broken up, in with the Beer treated vermiculite? or did you layer it evenly over the verm? 3.) Did you strain off the beer and let the verm dry out a bit or sterilize it, and throw it in the tub? 4.) What do you mean by this: "patched by kicking around substrate," ??
I think your idea of using verm for both the substrate and casing is brilliant. Removes the risk of pasteurized substrates, is easy to obtain, and absorbs anything.
Thanks in Advance Pbint

I need to get me a bigger hood, still struggling with a 12 X 24. RR
If you weren't so far away I'd say I have one you can buy, 6 feet by 2.5 feet with a big bench in front.

for pure bad ass-ness. 
 
Im currently tryin to design my flowhood and Im using a 2'x2'x11.5" filter for my hood.
all I would have to do is adjust the plenum for my filter compared to his design and I could do a similar setup for myself

Me too RR I noticed that in your video and then felt better as misery loves company. I would like to go to at least 3 x2 and dream of 2 x6 I got the blowers I need, just the time and the $ for the filters
Dare to dream, maybe a good project for next winter

Somebody willing to help me a little bit? I think I´ll be doing my own flowhood.
I´ve got some choices here, http://www.atex-filter.de/system/pdfs/371/original/Hepatex_CR_EN.pdf?1425373726
There´s H14 and some other options. Is it good to have more than H14? (->scroll down->) Are all these standard sizes converted into the metrical system? Which one would you recommend for a beginner? 12x24 or so? Do I need to worry about it having a standard size?
Basically I need to hear some experienced scientist telling me OK, go for it, these will work, or so. The work with the wood is as easy as ordering and gluing, and with the blower I will have to do some math. Thanks
