    Started doing some basic clean up in the shop & decided to go through all the spotlights I have rat -holed away for all these years.

    A simple clean up job has turned into a week long adventure of disassembling spotlights , sorting the components out by condition & then repairing, rewiring & re-assembling them all based on condition.


    What a can of worms this has turned out to be :rolleyes:


    My buddy told me it was good for me & this would keep me out of the bars for awhile :D

    Whoa!

    Hey Joe, I'm not so sure that your buddy's advise is right!:eek: That would drive me to drink, but then again, I'd be able to see to get there!;)
