Just browsing the other forums you have logged this work on and there is a bit about you not being able to hide wires for working the lamps. Im sure you could manage that. Couldnt you just use LED's? I am sure you only need very thin wires and a small battery to power them!!
It would be great to see them working....

The wires would still be visable, besides the lights are only on for the warehouse scene. I think it'll look silly with big spot lights stuck on it when its not dark.

Make them seperate so you can attach them at night and use it as a lamp.... How cool would that be..

Ok back to it.
take one block of delrin, cut it square
remove 80% of it
mill a funky recess
drill, countersink etc etc
got some 3mm brass tube which is spot on fer these bits, managed to tap the inside to M2 for the bolt head M2 screws to hold it in.
spot on

I'm starting to get some feel of the scale of this thing. It's actually going to be quite big!
