Remember 6 months ago when Linus bought an environmental chamber on auction for dirt cheap... yeah turns out it is not cheap and would cost $250,000 if he wanted to keep it. BUT we got in touch with the guys who helped shutdown this exact unit over a decade ago and they managed to get it up and running.
