| Subject: | Modern US vehicle amber warning lights |  |
| Date: | Sep 30, 2005 |
| From: | Mark Robinson | |
| I wrote in earlier on this subject, the only response I got was to get amber sprues from a truck modler. I have checked around and have found nothing . Are there any suggestions on where to get something to make the lights ? I've tried to use automotive lenses, but they don't work out very well.Thanks for any help. On another note, after several experiments making spotlights, my final product came out pretty good. I had some sprue that was a little larger than normal, cut a portion down, rounded off in back with dremel tool, filed front flat,I used a micrometer to get all the same diameter. next cut a thin ring off a brass shell casing [used or fired] cut and bend to fit the light, this is the mount.I used super glue to attach. I hope this helps someone that wants to add these to a model, Thanks again for suggestions. |
