Just curious, where do you get yours?

I'm a bit tired of these bare aluminum bars which we use to house our LEDs and such. I tried a number of hardware manufacturers overseas and not having a lot of success.

Particularly interested in hybrid housing (LED and 4 bulb T5 housings).

Thanks

First one I made I used aluminum gutter.. ;)
FAR from elegant.. The rest.. wood fabricated..

Most will gut an existing fixture, see if you can find an old fixture for sale.
there was a company making nice looking t-5 enclosures, but I can't find the link.
