I have recently replaced the platform lights hopefully giving more of a western region feel.
The post was cut from cardboard repurposed from old sketchbooks. I have found this material gives a good representation of the concrete used for these 1940/50's lamp posts.
The lamp fitting was turned out of some laminated plastikard, mounted in a mini drill and turned to shape.
A small piece of brass wire creates the fitting . The post is painted a humbrol wood colour
