:lol: Pretty cool! Rather inventive to say the least. Almost Red Green style!!
BTW....however you potsed those, don't know if it was the same with other viewers, but every one of 'em I couldn't "back out" and go straight back to your posting. Had to close out, and then re-open the forum link. Drove me nuts! Otherwise, pretty neat.
I use those lamps in various places of the house too. They're great in otherwise dark closets. One bathroom is not on my automatic standby generator, so I keep one there by the shower just in case, though we seldom use that bath.

Looks like you have it running well. Did you recently make that video? I'm surprised you aren't covered by snow. I thought that here in California was the only place where winter is just like summer except it gets dark earlier! Have fun with your T. Hopefully you will have many years ahead and many Model T's over your lifetime. It's good to see younger people interested in the hobby. If they ever have a shutdown of all electronics such as predicted might happen when a solar flare shuts down the electric grid, the modern cars with all the electronics will stop, however the Model T's will continue to run. Isn't that great!

The snow melted yesterday, and I made the video this morning. Sorry about the hassle with the pics, I have some trouble getting them to post otherwise.

Ahhh..the creativity of a motivated youth. I bet that T is on your mind when you go to sleep, and on your mind when you wake up. Enjoy it.
