    Old traffic light Restoration project

    Thank you guys for the feedback! Some great points given and received and truly appreciated. I will keep you posted! It may not be a high tech project but I am sure I will have further questions as far as wiring goes. Paint part is what I enjoy the most.

    Old traffic light Restoration project

    So I know I don’t post much on here but do enjoy the site. I picked up an old traffic signal this weekend wanted too if there was any insight from anyone that’s done one before. I plan on repainting it of course but I also want to change all the light to 12v LED. I’ve done it before on...
