Thanks for the compliments guys. Ralph, you actually inspired me for the light shades on the outside lamps. I used a 3mm leather punch to put a hole in a sequin and glued a 3mm LED in them, then bent the leads to use for attachments to the building and the billboard. I want to do the same on tall pole to illuminate the yards. The LED lighting is the way to go, you just need resistors in the circuit to limit the current. The LED's are really forgiving on the values of the resistors. I used a 1000 ohm in series with 3 LED's as I was going to use a 12v wall wart. I used a 6v and they work fine, so there is some room for error.
