  1. Cool Ever seen anything like this ?

    My latest project.
    Took an old transformer heading to the scrap yard. I removed the oil and core to lighten it up. The old transformers like this had mostly brass nuts, bolts, and other parts.
    When I got it, of course the patina had really set in, but I knew I could buff out the brass and make her shine again. I originally was going to fix it up and hang it on my shed. I got busy and totally stripped it down, buffed out the brass and stainless, taped off the original manufactures logo and the #5 KVA number and added paint.

    Then I got my hands on a antique street light fixture.
    I thought it would be cool to mount the light on the transformer. I then thought how cool would it be if you turn on the transformer switch the light would come on? So I wired it so it did.
