Well my plans to put up a tent went downhill my Inlaws are moving to the room I was planning on Growing. Any how I got small space to work at in the attic. I seen these Spacebucket set up that will be perfect. I plan on doing one with a tote instet of a bucket. Any idea of wat light I should get? Or any idea how can I go about making one of these. I attached a pic of wat I'm aiming for. Also do you guys think I can pull off two 3 gal pot in one of these?

I’d try to make it a little taller, the photo seems short.

For the box I’d get a sheet or two of plywood and build a box, or maybe easier, frame it with pvc piping and wrap some black plastic cover over it.

Not sure what your available space is, some dimensions would help. Also, any heat up there or cold all winter?
 
Unique idea on getting started. We now know you're gonna figure out the rest of it. Height will eventually force an adjustment but that ain't much problem. That design can expand very simply.
Get your ventilation and energy in spec, you're good to go. Smaller pots will be much easier to handle and help limit how much care is required....

My space is about the size of the totes In the corner my attic the totes dimensions are 36 3/4" L x 21 3/8" W x 18" H. I got regular square totes so I can stack 3 no problem

I think that should be plenty of space. Basically a 3x2 tent with shorty height.

As far as light and exhaust I don’t feel comfortable with my knowledge recommending anything for that size. Hopefully someone here with more experience in smaller grows will chime in

Agree...seedlings do great with a T5HO at close range (bout 2 ")...which I use for 3 weeks, then they are strong enough to handle a flower tent of cobs and qb at full strength.

What kind of cobs you got how many watts they put out?
I can always stack another a third tote to make the setup taller I got 3 totes to work with and two 3gal pot fit in them I just checked
 
In my flower tent, I run 2 cobs...1 55w autocob and 1 75w rapidled cob with a 150w qb between them. Together they provide some juicy fruit.
