Popular Post Randy Posted July 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2020 It's not everyday that I get to build something in the warehouse, but when we needed to run an airline system to get circulation going to our newest plant tanks I was happy to play builder for a day. 1" PVC Ziss Never Clog Airstones Aquarium Co-Op Black Airline Tubing Aquarium Co-Op threaded individual air line valves and 2 Medo LA-45 linear piston air pumps. Each tank has 3 Ziss airstones to bring in a ton of air and move around a lot of water. My 2 tips will be 1) make your holes along the printed text to keep them aligned, and 2) use the drills chuck to screw in the air valves to save your fingers a lot of pain. 🙂 24 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Streetwise Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 This network and server administrator loves seeing well-designed systems. A cool Coop video would be to follow a forum member's order all the way thru the process and warehouse. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Posted July 15, 2020 Author Share Posted July 15, 2020 We don't cut corners with customers or our crew. Today's warehouse project is the addition of the biggest, baddest, most techy fan would could fit! For those in the know, this brand of fan is top choice in warehouse and distribution center environments. (Blades not attached at time of taking this picture) And don't worry, professionals are installing this, not yours truly. lol 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem pretty awesome, I've always been curious to see how bright they are. Edited July 15, 2020 by MickS77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForestJenn Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Do the winglets help? Or are they like the spoilers on an economy sport car? I wonder if the fan has to be over a certain size in order for there to be an impact? Is it supposed to be more efficient or move more air? I wonder if Google knows? Off to check. I'm learning all sorts of new things today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Cory Posted July 16, 2020 Administrators Share Posted July 16, 2020 Had to stop by the warehouse to get some more plants and supplies to work on the 800g today. I thought it looked cool to see a bunch of people ordering our branded products on the belt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm learning all sorts of new things today! In sailboat racing, we talk about the end-plate effect of having your headsail go all the way down to the deck. This keeps more flow attached to the foil, resulting in more aerodynamic efficiency and more power. So those winglets help move more air. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
