ive joined the reflectors to some plastic conduit to strengthen them and im going to attach them to the ceiling with some metal bars i got from tool station. i also want to change the heating arrangement that ive got at the moment (2 little 120w tube heaters off a thermostat and a separate 1000w oil filled radiator) im doing away with the 1000w radiator and introducing two 240w tube heaters to run off the same thermostat as the 120s At the moment im still trying to find the will power to start coz it involves popping of a few panels to get access to the wiring and moving a few things about,i would like the lights to work of a timer but i havent figured out exactly how we are going to join it all together, ive enlisted the help of my brother who used to be a sparky but hes now a fire investigation officer for the fire brigade , so hes a bit anal about safety all the cable and junction boxes have got to be rated for outdoor use etc. tires me out just thinking about it .plus the weathers been miserable. ive got lots of excuses........... maybe start tomorrow lol
