Pretty simple, the holes in my wood panel are a perfect fit for the sockets I had... I'm pretty sure you could get them at Home Depot. They're like rubber made. Look at this picture:





Well... I'm from Canada, so I bought one on NCIX.COM at like 16$. But I found cheaper ones on DirectCanada.com they are like 12$. It's worth it... I'm planning on buying some more to replace all fans with NOCTUA. Don't get SilenX, they cost more and have less airflow... I think NOCTUA is the best fan around... I've made lots of research about silent fans... if you find a more quiet fan, let me know!

is that chipboard in your case? doesn't that get effected in anyway, because im making a growbox fully out of chipboard and i need some advice on this cheap material. Although it will be painted and coated with mylar... Good choice?

I used 3/4 plywood. what do you mean if it gets effected? you mean if it gets warm? If that is what you meant, I currently have 5 fans in there for airflow... nothing gets hot hehe!

Well, you could paint it white and coeated mylar. I used duct insulating sheets, which you can find at home depot where they sells duct... it's pretty cheap!

yeah i meant if it gets warm or moist would the wood expand or somethin. But it sounds as if fans should do the trick... im thinking about using a cardboard box now because im really low on my budget bit of a step down init haha!
