    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    Square and level bro

    Was given a fitting that plugged into the wall socket a few years back when we swapped all the lights out at the warehouse im based at.
    So to answer ya the light was free and I have got three spare bulbs in my hot little hands

    Yes that is definitely a flouro tube. It's probably putting out about the same light as a an old school 250W bulb

    My scales don't like draughts but is all right under flouro.

    Good work Bob the "Builder" Reckon you ll be able to rebuild the ute motor on that baby , it looks strong enough...

    Suppose there will be some flowers and choccies on there before it gets dirty when you try to con the missus into christening it ha ha ...

    Tip of the day try that while its still nice and clean.

    Actually built one for me mates young fella to work on his motocross bike recently and we glued some new offcuts of floor vinyl on it ..

    Real easy to keep clean...

    Give it a coat of varnish before it gets dirty.
    Looks good though.
