Rubbermaid Shed as grow box?

My first plan was to go with a secret jardin dr 80 tent but i stumble upon these rubbermaid storing shed and think maybe these might work and will be more stealthy. Please take a look at the link and let me know what u guys think. Will it work? Also what kinda cutting tools will work to cut thick plastics? I already got all the other stuff such as lighting, fans and filter. Im going with a 400w mh/hps air cooled hood, 4" fan and filter combo and 2 small circulating fans.

Please post pics as you put it together... step by step if you have time. It looks good and I like that it seems to have a lockable latch on front.

The one drawback I see is it looks to have less floor space than the DR 80 but it might be enough. You could really flower some stretchy sativas in that one.

from the measurements they listed for this shed, its not much different from the DR80. I have the DR80 before and its 2.3 x 2.3 x 5.7 so this shed is just a couple inches smaller for the width and depth but makes up for it on height. I just got a pm from another memeber saying these type of shed leaks a lot of light. I dont see how it can so anyone wanna give me there input on this?

looks good...while you're there, ask what saw they recommend

i was thinking about that but dont want them to think im up to something. So i figure since a lot of growers on here built there own grow box maybe they can shed some light on which saw to use.

Thought about doing one of those before, but as the member said...that will prolly leak alot of light. Why don't you just get a melamine wooden storage closet from Lowes or HD? Been rockin one for years, they work great if you set them up right. Just make sure you have good ventilation or a cooltube to help with the heat of a 400 watter. Good luck bro!

Oh yeah, you can check craigslist or garage sales to find a cabinet too, much cheaper!
