    gracias! fit on like it was made to

    so you know when you think your done with something , so you stare at it and wonder what else can be done? ...i did that yesterday. and actually got something done.

    turns out with some minor filing , my 45* copper fittings ,fit right over the led housing. add a tube from a broken cathode light , and we got a winner.i know its been done before in different ways , but i think it works on this one



    also picked up some metal mesh baskets from my local dollar store. lil bit of silver spray paint and those baskets make great fan screens


    thanx for looking

    Definitely an improvement over the original. Like billygoat, not exactly to my tastes, but it looks good and well done.
