UV Light Source (Tube)
 |
I finally got around to posting about my UV Light Tube Source. I took my dad's light source that he used for stained glass and I modified it so that I can use it in my alternative photography. There are some things that need to tell you as they don't show up in the photographs. First is the spacing between the bulbs. From light fixture to light fixture the distance is 1 3/4" . From the top of the bulbs to the bottom of the contact print frame is 3 7/8". Those little silver things next to the contact print frame is clips that are used to hold up shelfs in a cabinet. The aqua color thing is a scrub pad. The light fixtures are mounted on a 1 x 2 to make room for the ballasts. The ballasts are located underneath the bulbs. I also have drilled several holes in the front of the unit for ventilation and stuffed the holes with scrap pieces from the scrub pad. They act like a filter. |
