Dear all...today l started a boring but necessary built..well here it is.
All the truss beams are made with hangar lamps...buut those lamps are very poorly made in 2 dimensions....so l decided to make all the lamps. So the red circle in the picture is the wrong lamp ...the yellow are the "correct one" that l made and 2 per beam....each lamp is 2mm in diameter


Good day sir,

What did you use to make the hanger lamps? They look perfect.

Take care,

Chris
