Home early from work this hitch. Trying to get what I can done on the CH 4-way D-type and CH single face DT before shipping off to New Zealand.
Weather in Houston is not good for trying to paint our lights so starting work on the post for the single faced DT light.
In the foreground is the post being cleaned up. In process of removing all the old paint. Notice the bottom is cut off. Base was severely damaged. The post base in the background is what it use to look like.
Another view of post.
Five inch schedule 80 pipe welded to flange. Welded this from scrap at work this last hitch to use as a new support and base for the broken post. Outer diameter of the post is 5-3/4 inches and fits snuggly in post.
Figure we would prepare this lamp post while waiting on the weather to improve. Once this is assembled, will start working on building new wiring harnesses.
Cheers!
Westminster, CA.
