Lighting Gloat?

I picked up ten, two bulb, four foot, flouresent light fixtures today.
Slightly used, in very good shape.

Soon my old eyes will be a little happy in the shop!

Just wait... the ballasts will start leaking PCBs and you'll be back
here whining about the big hairy warts growing on your back.

You'll see...

Better send them to me for proper disposal.

You suck.


I think that's the appropriate reply.

Hey Vato, conagrats man. I know how you feel. I just picked up 3 car stereos
and a wallet last night for free. Made me feel all warm inside.

Doesn't that give ya a nice, warm fuzzy feelin'? lol

Free is my favorite thing...then garage sailing. I often scout on
pre-garbage collection day for some good wood...usually old dressers.

If you didn't get these with bulbs, ya got took! lol


Have a nice week...

Nup. You'll be broke soon from paying that light bill. Better send them to
me so I can get rid of them for you, and save you a fortune.

I will take my chances!
Besides, the PCB's from the 12 fixtures I already have in the shop have not
caused me any great pain, yet!

That candlelabra may be a bit much for the shop, don't ya think??
Unless you have an excellant dust colection system, keeping it clean and
shiney is gonna suck!

I also have 3 or 4 drop in, four bulb, fixtures for suspended ceilings I was
going to use, but I like these "new" fixtures better, so they will go to the
highest bidder! ;-)
