jolt Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Got the stand and canopy delivered today. I can't say enough about Chris Benner at Benner Woodworking. He worked with me over the past few months and I couldn't be happier. His attention to detail is amazing and besides being a great carpenter, he is also quite the engineer. I had a pair of actuators from a former build and wanted to incorporate them for this build. He worked with Progressive Automation and 80/20 to lay out a great system and I can't wait to get the lights hung in this beautiful canopy. +1 - I really like my frag tank stand from Chris, and the attention to detail is special Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may need to do that in the future. I asked the builder about it but it didn't materialize Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+olaggie01 Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 Watching glue dry is like, watching paint dry. So while I was waiting for all the PVC glue to dry, I put up one of the T5 fixtures. I'm waiting on some more parts to hang the Radions, they should be here today. I think overkill might be an appropriate word when I have all four T5s up with the 2 Radions sandwiched between Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
