Bud Bucket Cloner

Hey guys/gals. After weeks of brainstorming it's finally finished, and showing great results so far....
I spent around $70 making this and I thought I would pass the savings on to my good friends here at GP.
What you will need:
(2) 5 gal buckets with lids
Mylar, or foil tape
Net pots( you pick the diameter, depending on your rockwool)
Computer Fan
Drill or a sharp knife
Black electrical tape
12" piece of PVC tubing
an end cap and a 90 deg elbow for the tubing
24" of Plastic tubing to fit over male end of elbow
Submersible water pump
Bubble Stone & Air pump
Submersible aquarium heater
Sprinkler nozzles
I purchased (2) 5 gal paint buckets with lids at Lowes for like $3 a piece.
I wrapped the outside of them with black electrical tape. Next, I cut a hole in the bottom of one of the buckets to accomodate my computer fan.
Next,in one of the lids, I drilled (4) 2" holes(because I am using 2" net pots). These will house your clones and need to be a fraction in size smaller than your pots to ensure your babies don't fall through.
The PVC pipe needs to be cut to fit snuggly inside the bucket with the end cap and elbow installed and cemented.
Sit your heater, water pump, and bubble stone inside the bottom of the uncut bucket. (This is your resevoir) On this bucket you will need to trim a notch out of the bucket's lip to allow you cords and air line to exit the resvr. safely.
You can use your imagination for the lighting, but I used a regular heat lamp setup with the metal shade. I had to trim the shade back a bit to fit inside the top bucket but it fits perfectly . I drilled a hole right next to my fan hole as an exit for my light's cord. Doing it in this manner allows you to raise and lower the light using the cord.
Sorry that I'm not real in depth with this but here are some pics to use as reference. If you have any questions, shoot em out and I'll try to answer em for ya.
