Wow that light is a beast . Great idea on the home made heat sink, aluminum is so sexy , wish i had a spool gun . When its all done can you stand it on end turn it up full blast and get a Friend to stand in front of it , i bet 10 bucks we will be able to see there skeleton , or they will be vaporized!

Built a temp canopy over the last 2 days.






Currently glueing the LEDs to the heat sinks, man what a time consuming job but much easier then soldering.

Nope I took the heat sinks out & the front off to make it lighter.

P.S. did you get my e-mail Jeff?
