My brother works in an aluminum shop, if you have something your looking for pm me, but be VERY SPECIFIC. I always ask him for stuff and he asks a thousand questions, and by the time I'm don't I am frustrated for asking, I usually have him over to see the project, and ask what he thinks.... then he is a little more helpful. Otherwise I'm not sure he can visualize well.
I was under the misconception that white reflects more light, That's why I used 3" pvc thinwall ripped in half for my reflectors. Jason |

I'll get some actual dimensions. I decided last night after I had my cart all loaded up that I didn't want wooden enclosures for the lights and would make something out of Al instead. I'm not 100% sure on size yet, but I'll shoot you a Pm with specifics.
I'm assuming they can be cut to my specs? |

I'll submit them and see how much static he gives me.
He's got 5 kids, so his time is limited. The workst that would happen is that you'd define your measurments and he'd say no, and you'd have to find someone else. pm when ready. Jason |
