Simply another look to allow you to see a 20" box fan in one of the frames on the 77" wide rack.

A look at the inside of the finished wall on the right with the new door installed.

A look at the right side on the outside with the new door installed.

As you can see, it's coming along well.  The long florescent light that was on the ceiling has been removed.  Studs were taken all the way to the ceiling.

A look at the right side where you can see the rough opening for the 30" wide door to be installed.

The 2"x4" pieces on the floor have been glued with liquid nails to have something to nail the plywood into at the base.  Same goes for the other side.  However, the other side was also braced to the wall just in case the glue comes loose over time.

Another look at how the wall on the other side of the rough door opening was braced to the existing wall.

Photo from the inside of the mining room to have a look at the ceiling.

2"x4" stud ran underneath new power circuits and clamped down with "C" clamp.

Dad is excited to get this mining room build going.  He's also enjoying the workout.  He will be 75 the month of April.  We are constructing a wall with a 30 inch wide door on this side you see here.  The wall will be made with door roughed out on the floor on the other side of the garage then the bottom will be glued with Liquid Nails to the concrete and the top connected to ceiling joists above the garage.

The rack straight across is 48" W x 72" H x 18" D
The rack my dad is connecting a 2"x 4" to is 77" W x 72" H x 24" D.

We have 5 x 220V/30A circuits and 3 x 110V/20A circuits roughed in for the new added electrical.  You may only see 4 orange 10/2 wiring coming from beneath the Main Distribution Panel.  The 5th one is currently in the ceiling.  It once fed a heater that was mounted to the ceiling.  We took the heater down but we still need to reroute that circuit to the future Power Distribution Units (PDU's).

You can see some shims on the floor underneath the rack at the far end.  Actually, the shims come all the way under the feet of the racks to where my dad is standing.  We have the end where my dad is standing seemed up 0.75".  His garage concrete slab has a long decline in elevation from the back of the garage towards the garage door.  It was important to have it level for the door we will install on this end of the mining room.

You see the 5th orange 10'2 wire poking out through the ceiling.  That's the old heater circuit that will be rerouted for the 5th 220V/30A circuit to use for mining.

This is the 77" W x 72" H x 24" D rack with four (4) shelves.  A 5th shelf will be added on top of the 48" and 77" racks in the future for the 5th 220V/30A circuit.  A frame for 15 x 20 inch box fans will be made for this particular rack.

I have a 30" TPI Corporation 7800 CFM fan [Exactly like the ones I already have in my mining room] ready for install in the ceiling to exhaust the heat out of the mining room into the attic.  We have an idea for another 30 inch TPI Corporation 7800 CFM fan to be mounted for intake to offset static pressure.

672  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: The REAL Miner Photo Porn on: February 02, 2018, 02:35:44 AM
We have everything perfectly leveled.  We have the feet sitting on shims we made to level it to make sure the walls will be perfectly vertical; especially for the door we install on the other end of the mining room.  This corner will have plywood covering the sides of each rack. 

L-Brackets will be used on the inside to pull the 2" x 4"s together to avoid gaps and to keep perfectly vertical/level.

673  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Lets Share Ideas of Ways to Manage Heat From Mining in a Home or Warehouse on: February 02, 2018, 02:34:35 AM
I'm creating a new forum FOR ANYONE to post photos of what they have going on with their mining setup to give others ideas of what may be the best way to start off BY LEARNING FROM OTHERS FAILURES AND SUCCESSES.

So PLEASE FEEL FREE TO POST YOUR IDEAS WITH PHOTO(s) AND DESCRIPTION(S) OF WHAT'S IN THE PHOTO(s).

If you see a question mark (?) in a post for an image, simply refresh your browser and it should display the image the 2nd time.

I've learned a LOT through the years on how to manage heat generated by mining rigs.  I believe I've found an affective way to manage the heat without air conditioning.  

Trying to use air conditioning to battle the heat generated by mining rigs is really a losing battle.  Especially, if you have a lot of rigs.  I've found through the years it is best to find a way to simply get the heat AWAY from the rigs and OUT of the mining room or box.

You can see from my posts made in the following link [From back in 2014 - You'll need to scroll down a bit] that I do have SOME experience with mining in regards to experimenting with different ways of managing the heat. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=766998.40. For whatever reason, the link I just provided to another forum where I've made posts since 2014 is no longer active.  Sorry...  It's rather disappointing.  I had over 500 posts in that thread with hundreds of photos.

I'm currently in ANOTHER REMODEL in my mining room to make it even larger and manage the heat even better.  Updates to that remodel will be shared at a later date.

I'm currently working on a small mining room for my dad in his garage.  I've FINALLY convinced my dad how valuable crypto currency is to the FREEDOM of mankind and how it's the next big thing that will be BIGGER than the internet.  He recently showed interest in mining.  So, I decided to give him some of my old hardware that will still be profitable to mine with for him to make some extra money during his retirement.  Especially, since I believe social security will not be around much longer for he and my mother to live off of.

Here are images with comments of the current progress with the small mining room in my dad's garage from start to current.  [Be patient while I continue posting these one after another with comments.  This will take a little while]:  

A 2" x 8" was notched out to straddle the Main Distribution Panel (MDP) and placed to line up perfectly with the 2" x 4" mounted on the rack.  This END will be covered with plywood.
We also made sure the door panel for the MDP is not inhibited from access in the event of an emergency.  NEC requires easy access in the event of an emergency.  They would simply walk into the mining room, open the MDP door to flip breakers as needed from the inside.  This is a 200 Amp MDP.

A quote from someone on Trading View:

Quote from: CryptoDev
HOLY SHIT!! Just picked this up off the DGB Telegram channel BTC is this dude for real? QUOTE!!   My friends something is happening right before our eyes with Bitcoin and I want to bring it to your attention!!

Over the last 72 hrs Bitcoin and the Lightning Network have made MAJOR MAJOR advancements and achieved serious milestones.

Transactions backlog is only 83,000 and transaction fees are now only 0.80 cents.

Something huge is about to happen. I’m in tight with some BTC developers that are an integral part of the Lightning Network project.

Watch the news very closely. I’m ONLY posting here for DGB longs because I believe in our project and I believe Crypto is s better way for all of us. As I said after the string pulling with Poloniex to get the wallet back up for us.

“We are all in this together”

Thanks for listening

Promising looking chart.

First batch of my retirement fiatcoins are secured in my financial institutions.

Loading up to sell the next round by Wednesday if this momentum keeps up.


Agreed...

After looking back to 2015, I'm convinced DURING a Wyckoff Spring, we have re-traces down to the .5% FIB RT instead of .618% FIB RT.

The .618 FIB RT does not come into play [During a Wyckoff Spring] until THE END of a Wyckoff Spring.  Which I'm saying will end near year end.  Probably after Jan. 1st more than likely.  So, I'm expecting this drop to go down to approximately $8,475 instead of $7,786.




Closer look in the 240m TF:

680  Economy / Speculation / Re: Analysis on: November 16, 2017, 02:47:00 AM
This 180m TF looks like we've "potentially" exhausted out this upside episode from $5,555.00.  This may be the time down to "approximately" $4,854.86 +/- 2.3%.  Our demand is "cautiously" testing "supply."  The exchanges have to make what they can here on a dip as well; in order to liquidate some margin longs.  Once that liquidation is completed and we take her down once more, we can expect a race to $10k.
