Two new Light Boxes

Well after seeing Braz making his light box gave me the idear of replacing my light box. The problem with my other light box it was a bit heavy. So i made two one for the NP101mm refractor and one for my Cannon 70-200mm lens. Very happy with the way they turn out. Much much lighter then the other one i had. These ones are made from form board.

Looks nice Phil, why two, given the similar sizes.

Hi Gary made two because i can sit then on the lenses without worry that they wont move while im at the computer taking the flats. Plus the cost was not that much.

I sort of can see your logic, I think, LOL. I made one for a 4" apo, and then sold the scope, as the 4" opening was no good with the current 8", but your two look similar in size, at least close enough.
LED's inside?
