Random Stuff
|
After seeing some of Vince's awesome pics. I tried making my own but I didn't have much sun recently so I used a halogen PAR to try and see if I could get the same effect. Anyways, here's a pic of some random electrical stuff I had lying around.

For sale or trade, one Gull, knows how to get you lots of streetlights and rare lamps
And nice picture
EDIT: looked up the CD number and it is indeed CD 106
I love insulators, feel free to PM me and talk about them you guys!
There was a time I spent quite some time climbing old telephone poles along railroads to get insulators. All those lines in my area are completely depleted of any wire. Now I don't have much time for that, though I still like those glass insulators and those I got are still in my basement!
Did you guys know that the purple ones were actually clear originally, then decades of sunlight caused the lead-containing glass to turn purple?
Oh and recently I was in antique "Emporium" (which was lit by tons of 2XF96T12 fixtures) and they had WAY overpriced common insulators, I saw one for $16USD! (Or maybe I'm used to finding them for cheap at thrift shops).
My late mother had some huge ceramic ones but I let those go...they would have been ridiculous to ship and might not have survived the out-of-state move anyway...I DID however save all the glass ones we had collected...they will be mailed to me at some point...
BTW a hilarious story...So I was on google images today to show someone what the unique town hall building in that town looked like and pics of THAT house came up (obviously on real estate sites). I was like, "How ironic!"
