[soundscapes]

im after some retro style light boxes, 4 channel 8 bulbs per side. found some on ebay that are 2 rows of 4 bulbs per side but really im after one row of 8 bulbs to stand on floor. any ideas ?

would just say if you are putting them on the floor ..... be mindful of little fingers wanting to take the pretty bright sweets or little tongues wanting to lick the flashing lollies ...

i would have thought ebay would be your best bet .. or maybe have a go at making some?

Shop in Lincoln sell's these but a bit pricey at £199.99.....allright call it £200.......:D
He makes them himself and not a bad job really.....:)

why not have a go at building them yourself?

1 x sheet of 12mm mdf £12.00
16 batton bulb holders from wickes about £18
4 x bulgin sockets £10.00
don't know how much the lamps are but I bet they won't come to £160.00

yup an 80's rewind night, ive seen a rotating pin spot bar on ebay too which might look good with smoke. I wanted the spot boxes to stick either side of the projector screen instead of the flame lights i use normally.

I agree with conlint - build your own it isnt difficult and you will get exactly what you want :)

I havent got the time, ive got a new baby on the way ( due today, hence im not working ).
Dont want to pay mega money for something that will get used once.

Ive bought mastermix dvd visuals which has a lightbox effect on it, ill just stick that on the big screen

Good luck with the progeny. I possess one box of the spec you require. I was always going to build it's mate!:D PM me with dates etc, and I'm sure you can have a borrow.
