Wtf

Maybe use some thin strips of wood for structure and support. Like pieces of strapping? It's pretty lightweight

I’ll just put the hangers in the middle and it will hug the plants like an umbrella

Kev, go to the hardware store, buy some 3/4" aluminum angle and use it as a stiffener along the length/width of the rig, perpendicular to the rails. Just put it in between your boards so you can screw it to the frame and attach all the rails to it. It'll work pretty decent.

Not sure how you are arranging the lights but worst cause you make it into individual strips like 3 rows of 4. Might make it more versatile. I just used 1/4 inch aluminum channel and it worked fine but didnt make anything on that scale.

The bigger square fixture was on a 5x5. The other geeen 1 was 13in wide x 48 in long.
I used 1/8 thick angles and had no bowing on either fixture. 1/4 in prolly is best either workd well.

Ya I think I got a different size screw in each hole. I measured with a piece of string and eye balled it. But if I didn’t do it tonight while I was working I would have never gotten this thing together
