>>661571Update on my rack progress: Now built and added the upper two decks, went with diagonal screwing which posed no problems (used rather thin screws though).
I didn't manage to cut the legs very perfectly even so the whole thing isn't 100% straight, but eh it's not supposed to look too good for €20
The window sill apparently isn't very straight either (slightly slopes down towards the room side) so I had to place some cardboard below the legs. The whole system is very stable though, so I'm content with it so far.
Haven't added the aluminium foil flaps yet and I'll probably delay it for a while because next week there's supposed to be a severe cold wave rushing in (night time lows down to -6°C/+21°F) so I'm gonna wait that one out first
>>661683>My winter indoor stuff gets only 4 hours of direct sun a day. The rest is ambient.Oh you might've misunderstood me, 8 hours is the theoretical maximum of direct sunshine we can get here the whole day in mid-winter, and 2-3 hours is the theoretical maximum for my window. But most of the time it's overcast here so it averages out to maybe 0.5h/day (and that at very low angle), with the rest being ambient
