MH Hood 2x175w

[BlondNasoTang]

Here is a photo journal of my corner hood.
Here is the dual 175 w MH.

I started by laying out and cutting all the pecies for the basic structure.

I then glued and screwed the pecies together and painted the wood with a marine primer and black paint and sealed it in a non-toxic water sealent.

I then layed out the reflectors and drilled the holes and bolted in the first fixture.

I made a gap between the hood and the reflector to promote better cooling

I installed two 100 cubic feet per min silent run cooling fans.

and the last fixture

after I installed a "Thermo Switch" for the fans and put all the wires in jackets and brackets.
I also built a DIY moon light and instaled it in the hood.
