phil i would leave it with the metal grates for more air surface to hit the miner ...
wood would act like a heat absorber + if they get to hot maybe wood catch fire but the metal would just get warm ?
i like the idea of the metal better just for better air flow
yes I am going to make the platform half wood so I can access it and half wire shelf .
I have to message buysolar.
what makes the easy is we have a lot of room for the miners.
the limiting factor is not the barn it is the solar array. but the horse pasture is only big enough to make 6 rows of 11kwatts each.
maybe down the road panels will improve and the same size can do 2x what it can do now.
That is down the road quite a bit.
For now buysolar will keep doing the install on the solar side.
I will look to see if we can get more miners.
I want bitfury but may end up getting s-7's or avalon 6's
