This morning I've put some cross pieces in the box base to support the inner section better.

The arc welding lights have been fitted into the base and tapped in place.

The arc welding lights have an intermittent flash which hope fully I will be able to up load to U tube later when the whole build is complete.

Suddenly thought of that and gave them some goggles Paul, hopefully it will distract those chickens;)

Great work John. Dio's are beyond me, but I do like it when they captivate me, just as yours does. Splendid stuff.

Don't undersell yourself John. There's many people in the world who have no imagination whatsoever - it's a quality to be celebrated and envied!
JUST TAKE THE COMPLEMENT!
(And award yourself a DOG'S)
