I've been working on my light rack the last couple of days. I am trying to come up with something that will hold 3 250s plus 4 t5s. Right now my t5s are from my 4ft tank so they will be too short unless I stagger them. I want the option of upgrading down the road to 8 36" t5s.

I am also thinking of different ways of supporting the rack. Right now I think I will use aircraft cable and suspend the rack fr the ceiling. I am trying to come up with an easy yet secure way to raise and lower the rack when needed. Does anyone use pulleys and if so how do you set the height?
