Ok. I put the working on the canopy on hold right now cause my truck decided to fall apart all in a day for me here. I have a quick question to ask though. I'm running my VHO's off a wh7 and I would like to know how long i can make the wires from the ballast to the end caps. I'm not fond of the idea of mounting it on the canopy but I will if I have to. That about covers it, the answers to my other questions were right under my nose.
 I'll finish it up tomorrow evening because of the easter dinner and stuff tonite. Mmmm deep fried turkey.Scott

Thanks Stinga, much appreciated. Well here's the moment you've been waiting for, da da da da, ha ha just kidding. The canopy is finito, on the tank and waiting for the timers to turn it on tomorrow. It reflects waaaay more light than my old canopy did. I only had a 12" reflector on the old one, this one is 36" long. I have to pick up a 12v power converter for the fans to run (I coulda swore I have one somewhere in my garage) but thats just a matter of tie the wires and plug it in. On another note, found out today just how much a 250w halide will melt the center brace on the tank. Lots. So far the front has bowed out 1/4". If it stays there I'll cut out the brace and chance it, any more and I'm going to have to do something about this. Here's the pictures.
