FB Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 still got the big original shed to do, thats taking more time as the light cables are not as long, so using the socket set that comes with the lighting kit, just planning on where to put the sockets, inside or out :D (probably inside the barn at high level) still need to spray the frame grey first, lower section red (mmm may spray it all red \) then the cladding (aluminium lower section, rest green as small shed). Shouldnt take long really, just finding the time....and the grey paint :D hoping it will look like this \ http://www.farmtoysforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=3034.105 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 That is the Don King of model sheds Ben, it certainly stands out from the crowd. The lighting put's a hell of a realistic look over the tractor parked in there. Bloody awesome to tell you the truth. Best i get my workshop finished and send it up to FB Electricals me thinks!!

FB Posted May 16, 2006 Author Share Posted May 16, 2006 very very nice :P ben what do the lights involve and where from ???. also what colour green did you use. ??? :) lights come from EMA, but i got them from their sister shop, hobbies.uk, as they had run out and would have to have got them from there anyway. Its in the website link. They are 6mm 3.5 volt downlighters but upgraded the bulbs to 12v so i could run it off a transformer. Then i had to buy the extension leads and bigger plugs for them.....its basically dolls house lighting. If you can find it in a toy/model shop you will see what i mean green spray was a spray by humbrol. Dark Matt Green, i'll get the number for you when i get to the shed next Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
