I've made this out of some old aluminum. However, the other side of it that you cannot see is painted.
It will be holding a 400W HPS/MH.

Do you think the lamp will generate enough heat to cause the paint to start melting?

nice work m8.... depends on the paint I suppose... paintstripper if in doubt?

I do not know what paint it is. If it does melt I'll update this with a warning.

Pip pip, Badder.

depending on the type of paint it is, it could release harmfull toxic fumes when warm mate, just to forewarn you.
