I will as soon as I figure out how to get past the security fence. Might be reduced to pleading cap-in-hand with the building owners to let me have it. How likely do you reckon 180w SOX lamps would survive the trip Downunder?
Kev   [Apr 14, 2012 at 04:23 PM]
Seeing as I had one wrapped VERY well that didnt survive the trip to me im not too sure. Mind you i think it was wrapped at the ends leaving the middle unsupported!

Yeah it would have to be a pretty good wraping job, but the lamp in this got from Belgium to Australia so who knows? Wink

Better go check out the demolition trade places you guys are so lucky to have!
Kev   [Oct 13, 2013 at 11:24 AM]
Maybe start sifting through the rubble lol

My fault for not being more on the ball with it. The mounds of upturned dirt had grass on it so it happened a while ago. There's so few demolition shops here that it's highly unlikely it will be in one. I'm just hoping that someone on the crew saved it but I'll never know.
