vintage lights & reflectors, retrofitted diy hand made stuff.

Thought I would share some bits I'v done/ modified lately, hope you enjoy.
(and yes I'm having fun with all these fonts I'v downloaded for a shop sign I'm designing haha)

I love the old bike jewels but they are expensive to get posted from America; the postage often costs more than the item which is a bit of a bugger so I made these:
I painted it with red nailvarnish but it didn't stand out so well on my black rack to stripped it back to silver,
This is a lovely peice I recently acquired
(too big to post & I'm too lazy to make smaller) http://i49.tinypic.com/2hxr6s6.jpg

I pimped it up with a cree t6 xml so I can see & avoid all the badgers & rabbits up here in rural Yorkshire(!)

The switch on the underside had to go because it wasn't easily accessible once mounted & I needed that hole for the cable (my soldering was poo anyway)
