How I gained 6 inches and made it smell better

[RagWeedDWC]

Click Bait works :-)
Since fishing season is a bust, had to work on to problems with my grow space. Not enough height and in flower the back yard had a smell. I had a four inch system tucked away and the thought was to just increase the filter to a 6 inch. Should of measured the space first, so now have to have a new plan.

Gaining 6 inches required changing wheels on the roll out and changing totes to a wider short tote.
More to come, sorry I'm bored waiting on the storm and fishing season being a total bust.

Well well i'm glad you finally figured out, that's really " swell "

[crucialbunny]

Very sorry to hear that. (The fishing part) We've got a decent bite going on of 40-80lb bluefin and some smaller yellowfin. Dorado are beginning to show in the counts as well. Offshore Mexican waters. But gaining 6 inches without bending, well, that's impressive.

Gave the old girl a fresh coat of flat white paint (All I had on hand). Fans were always in the way last year with the tumble weed grows, so used a length of PVC and mounted fans so they will be recessed. Will mount a second smaller length at the front or on the side. Changed out 4 inch filter, 6 inch would not fit in space and need to redesign or add to existing. More to follow.

We don't want to see no skinny ass Olive Oil plants in there anyhoo

[RagWeedDWC]

Exactly :-)

Added 6 more inches of filtration, I know its over kill, but have nosy neighbors that think my dogs are killing skunks all the time........ Or at least that's what they have been told.

[FunkyButtLovin]

I'm beginning to wonder how many people clicked thinking they were going to see some johnson.

[RagWeedDWC]

Lot more than commented :-) going by the views.

[RagWeedDWC]

OK, I lied, it was only 5 1/2 inches..

[Xena]

You did better than most, you were lying about an extra half inch instead of an extra half foot.😊

[RagWeedDWC]

Yeah, that was sorta what the bride said also :-)

Box is ready for "Batter up" now to work on the new Totes.

Bored out my gourd with no fishing......

Finished up the totes, will working on starter tote with spitter next.

The first hole I drilled when learning to build a tote was rough or jagged around the edges like one you pictured. I used the spade bit on the left in the picture. I found with a piece of wood under where I drilling and using a spade bit like the one on the right in my picture it cut a much cleaner hole. The 2 keys to cutting clean hole were the board to help keep bit located and the little tips on outer edge of the spade bit which cut the outer edge of hole before removing the majority of plastic your removing.

[RagWeedDWC]

I normally do something similar. I normally work in metal so the tools i have are a little more robust and I needed a 1 3/8 hole, I drilled from one side after establishing the center and then swapped around to finish cutting. Problem was I had tasted a little of the last tumble weed I grew and still had the drill in drill mode instead of reversing it for a cleaner cut... oh well, old tote is now a flower pot and new tote is in place.

[Poppa]

As a man with what my mother called a tool fetish I admire that hole saw I have a set that goes from 1" to 3" but they are for wood. I really should stop being such a cheap bastard and buy one for cutting the holes for my baskets to set in. It just hit me I own a set of Greenly punches that might make a cleaner hole that the spade bit I currently use for the holes I put in the sides of my totes.

[RagWeedDWC]

I have a set to punch out holes for gauges in aluminum, well to be more accurate. I had a set of punches for dashes to place gauges in, how ever my son "borrowed" them for his race car and damn if I have seen them since :-). I fully expect him to be rolling out my box in the next couple of years!

[RagWeedDWC]

Finished my seed starter, last of the rebuild before start of season. This does not require a water pump, I found a pump in the tote increases temps just a shade. Also does not plug at all.

[RagWeedDWC]

All done, 24 hours later all the clay is soaked, Time to start some seeds.

Closing out this click bait
