Well I am down to the nitty gritty on the D 4 way restoration that was once in the center of GJ. The reassembly took a little longer since the powdercoater applied the process a little thick to some of the parts and threads. I am down to 3 doors but I had to back away from the ladder for a bit.

Photobucket is being a pain right now so I will try again once I get a couple more completed pics but the link to the album should work for now hopefully :rob:

Good photos Steve of the D 4-way! Hoping our light comes out looking good like yours.

Cheers!

Looks SUPER Steve!

I wish I had a dollar for every time I've driven under that signal!

Well I think I have photobucket figured out and the pics rotated properly... lets check

I had to install a box to hang the signal at a height where I could avoid a concussion :dizzy:

so this is what I came up with

I hated to walk away from it this close to completion but I just had to back away from it. I hope to have it completed tonight and more pics soon :good:

You not only did a GREAT job on the restoration but know where the light came from. That's fantastic. I personally think that the history of the light can be as interesting as the light itself. Nice work...

VERY nice work, I like your ceiling solution too! Good thing too, I remember the many head hazards your garage has... :Phil:

Now I just have to figure out a way to get his other 4-way out of his ~~cold dead hands~~ willing and open hands...just have to find something else that he can't live without!

Oh heck Dan! I must have forgotten to mention...

that I decided to make a single section beacon out of the Ohio

Spoiler:

DT 4 way but I do have an Autoflow 2 section that may be available and I am sure I can think of something :crazy:

is it time to go digital??? or at least solid state

Let me know if you have more spare parts from that DT, I'm trying to build a beacon myself but most of the parts I have are damaged and I'm still missing a few!
