Hi, I thought it would be nice to add files for creating a small-scale model to incorporate in existing plans or design meetings. Thanks.

Hi Silicakes

The structure of the Growroom is based on 18mm plywood, which means that all joints and wedges fit together according to this particular thickness. This means that the Growroom can't be scaled to any size without altering the entitet structure. What you can do, however, is to scale it according to the material you wish to build it in, and experiment with the wedges. For instance, if you wish to build it in a 3mm thick material, you can scale all the drawings 1/6, as a 3mm thick material is 6 times thinner than the 18mm plywood.

I hope this can help you further.

Best regards Husum&Lindholm
