Default Good Wood

I built my own hood it has 2 250W DE MH and I disassembled a coralife PC fixture for 4 65W which I now use for actinic... then got a reflector... cut, painted, stained, assembled... I like DIY but it took a while to get ballasts fixtures bulbs... then put it all together.
I figure I saved about $100 Probably spent half that on gas

PS I am building a new hood for the new 120 I'm getting together I just like the look of a wooden canopy that matches the stand (also DIY Angle Iron, with wood and acrylic)
