With the hot tub out of this 10x12 building I now have a finishing room. Took down the ceiling fan and installed LED shop lights so we have plenty of light, but no ventilation. No problem, I built this using storm windows because with a hot tub you don't want expensive windows. Just something to keep the elements out. So since you can remove the glass panels for cleaning I decided to remove the upper one in a corner and designed a box to go through it. The hole is just large enough for me to be able to use a 16 inch attic fan, plenty of ventilation power with that! Took me an afternoon to make the box and cut out the front and back panels. I was deliberate in using alot of screws, I prefer to easily be able to access this if my prototype has issues. Ya never know and I certainly am not a design engineer expert. Started with the case. I braced the thing to death, paid off in the end NO vibration. Outside and inside case panels. And after a few days for the paint to cure. All done and working well. Installed aluminum screen on the outside to keep the bugs out. On the inside I used this 1/2 square mesh has a funny name like fabric mess or something. Either way it will keep fingers safe. Now if a bug goes in there, oh well welcome to the torture chamber. Now I am ready for the summer heat.
