Thanks Randi stuff is growing slow but steady I guess. I want some colony-on-colony action but I guess I gotta be patient =)

So if anyone wants to see proof of that good old saying "it's who you know not what you know" here it is. I had GHL boss Matthias custom fab me this slick mounting bracket and drop ship it straight from Germany.





To the untrained eye it looks like some old ikea door handles, some bent up brackets I had laying around and a piece of braided flex hose but don't be fooled. This is ALL win

That's so strange. Only my posts?? Man what did I ever do to your work computer?? It sounds like a big meanie. Yeah, you heard me, I said big meanie. Hi Mom. In all seriousness I have to wonder if it could be my avatar image then? If it's only MY posts??? Does it at least show that or does it cut out beforehand? You should see if you can grab a screen capture of it happening..

I mounted my wavemaker (similar shaped box) similarly, but I used a piece of 16 gauge wire instead of a braided hose.

That custom fabbed piece of flex hose or what looks like flex hose is going to put someone's untrained eye out when they run up the stairs.

I should prolly toss a container under the hoses so I have visual proof the thing is working throughout day 1 but I'm too lazy to rig something. I have the hoses in a tight spot in my overflow.

I love it already Lance. Makes a great night-light in the dark stairway!

The accessories and mounting options for GHL products are endless.
So many options to choose from...



Need a full stairway shot now Brett.
