New guy: Chandler, Az

This is the new member sandbox. Until you post a little something about yourself here, you don't get to play on the rest of the board. So tell us a little something about yourself and your signals.

New guy: Chandler, Az

Hello all, My name is Jonah W., In Chandler, AZ (PHX suburb). I am a commercial electrical journeyman/forman.

I have inherited a 1930's GE post mounted stoplight that I would like to restore. It has GE holophane "spiderweb" lenses and one of the greens is broken.

HOWDY!!

The signal is pretty rough. It has been imbedded in concrete for years. It is two sided and mostly complete the side not in the pictures has a green lense out i have it but it is in 4-5 pieces. Finding another lense, I believe, will be the biggest hurdel in this resto.

If anyone has a pic of the original way it was mounted I would be greatful.
