Some Cool lights from scrounging

Post by wiredone »

These are two very cool lights that I picked up recently. The one on the lathe is from a yard sale,($3.00) the other I got yesterday for $2.00 at one of the local thrift stores. I like supporting them, they are run by the battered womens shelter. Unfortunately, they are very busy at the shelter. I do what I can.
