I really like your screen setup. I'm assuming that the eggcrate keeps the screen "in the middle" of the bubbles? How have you made it easy to take the screen out to clean?

Thanks for sharing and...

It seems like everybody is using LEDs for their UAS... I know nearly nothing about LEDs because when they started getting popular I figured I'd let them get figured out before I looked into them. ...

Would 12 watts of floodlight CFL for each side of the screen be sufficient?

Okay, is this what we were waiting on for May 1? Is there anything else to expect to come out tomorrow?

This is great! Do you clean this in the same way as the old ats? (with tap water and...

Thanks!
