testing my new lightbox with my Sea Dweller

I just built a new lightbox by studying the plan a very good friend of mine drew...and with slight modification...

here's the look of it..

the front


the back


the light switches


the inside....




and the result.......(please enjoy, I beg you all)





and after the luminova has eaten enough light....


the box is good... but I think I need more skills in photo

cheers mate!!!

Glorious!! Great job!

Now you need to box those up, sell them, and become RICH!

Then open you own AD!
