The Aberaeron Show is looming large, and we have pledged to take Cardigan/Boncath along to the Show in Llwyncelyn Hall on Sunday August the 9th.
Llwyncelyn is about three miles South of Aberaeron on the A487 from Cardigan - the hall is on the right-hand side opposite the filling station and stores - free parking in a large field next to the hall.
Anyway, cricket was boring this afternoon, so I got out the lighting pelmets that we have for the layouts, and thought I would tidy them up. this is Boncath in the early days:
Lighting is provided by strips of LEDs powered by a 12 volt transformer, going through a dimmer switch, to give daylight reducing to night-time.
On the left you can see the two strips of LEDs and the aluminium (aluminum for our US readers...) bracket arrangement holding the pelmet
In the right-hand picture is the dimmer switch.
As usual, we have tried to keep expenses to a minimum - the pelmet and shelf are uPVC soffit board strips that were spare from a roofing project. The dimmers came from China via Ebay.
Last two pictures are the pelmets with the appropriate name boards fixed to them, with the Cardi-Bach Society Logo at each end.
The next Tuesday meeting we will probably have a test run ready for the show...!
