Here's how my arc light should look like! (Roughly)
I didn't really want me to be in the pic, but I ended up being in it LOL.

So, that should reproduce pretty reliably the original look of an arc light from the 19th century. It won't have the "Heineken" finish, of course XD I'm gonna paint it with high temp black paint. Maybe there's gonna be a computer PSU on the upper side of the fixture for fans and transformer.

I picked up 4 white globes at the recycling centre last week, two big ones and two smaller ones. I prefer the bigger ones personally.
