I was looking for a way to display a lot of lights which just can't stand up straight on a shelf, like flushmount lights, motorbike-poles and -strobes, oscilazers and such.

The only thing I could come up with was a large plate of wood and just start screwing them on and in!

Far from ready, but here is a picture of the progress I've made so far on this display! Some more motorbike strobes (BMW and VAMA/FS to go in combination with the pipe-mounted Movia-D Strobe and Hella Rotafix), halogen flashers and LED's will be put on in the centre section.
I'll be mounting the power-supplies and flasher-units to the rear, the whole plate will be mounted on a small piece of wall where there are no lightbars yet Wink
Don't know how I'm going to activate the lights yet, thinking of some sort of row with switches or something.



In due time I hope to get some more color variation Wink

Hope you like it!

I've got exactly 50 centimeters width of \"Unused wall\"Wink Wink
It's a tight fit but couldn't think of a better way to put a lot of difficult displayable lights elsewhere Very Happy
