Maybe this thread should have been ...

... under Construction. I dunno, but here we go!

Attach the bubble wands to the bottom of the stackable shelf with zip ties or some other INERT material that wont rust (Tape?).

Stem wire wouldn't be a good idea down here because it'll rust and these will be submerged in a solution, constantly.

Attach the Hose

And, clean up the loose ends.

Also, you can see in this pic where I bent the legs of the shelf inward until I got it to fit just right inside the rubbermaid. About 45 degrees is what it took.

Drill Holes

in the platic sheild that came with the light.

On both sides, but not the bottom. The idea here is that by submerging the cutting in only 1/4-1/2 inch of solution it produces quicker results than putting it in too deep. Plus, it's always a pain to get all the clones cut perfectly the same length.

We will use these as the stem cups. If you can figure out something else easier, just make sure it's inert. This will ultimately be submerged, also.

Just wait, you'll see ...

I ran out of zip ties ...

So, I'm going to use stem wire to attach the cups in these pics. I'd still recommend zip ties because they are plastic. But, I'm not going to the store for this one. Use your imagination.

Attach the Cups

After drilling the holes in the plastic shield that came with the light, cut it up into 1 1/2 inch sections to attach to the bottom of the shelf.

Look at this ...

Cut the Bag

To fit over the stackable shelf. You want to completely cover the top with enough left over to wrap it under and tape it down.

'95 jnco's ...

Now, attach the bag securely.

Here's what mine ended up like, looking at it from the bottom.

Cut Holes

In the bag. I placed the CDs on the shelf to mark what spaces to cut so when its completed it can hold a total of 12 water clones.

You can also see that the holes are cut directly above the cups. This is for you to drop the cutting in. The cups will hold them at exactly the right level in the water.
