Gus, my soldering iron is nothing special, it stays hot for so long because i am just too stupid to pull the plug ... 
Herc, Steven, thank you for your kind comments.
Josh, what are you thinking of? Would ten feet be enough? ...
Okay, when you see what I’ve been doing today, don’t call for a doctor, I am beyond that ... I needed a lamp that looked a bit like the one that sits above the "V" on the front wall of the prototype. Well, it took only about two hours ...
. I started with a 5/32" brass rod, put it in my power drill and used a file to give it the right shape.

The bulb is a 1/8" white LED ... no, the lamp does not work ... I’ll do that next week
