Are they metal halide lights?

Are they metal halide lights?

nope, 3 dual bulb compact fluorescent can lights. Metal halides are on the way (im making someting with "home made" metal halides)

Wow Chuck Norris strikes again ! Seriously though Rallys, are you a carpenter by trade ? It looks so pro ! I wouldnt be surprised if you were.

I've built speaker boxes before, does that make me a pro?

very nicely done love the use of the can lites. Thats a great idea And i think i am stealing it for the wall.
Looks awesome can't wait to see it with the stand finished up. It will look amazing.

great effort fella. i notice (everyones a critic) that there are gaps at the top, but give it some thought and they will actually help to keep damp levels lower inside the lid as we all know how quickly this kind of thing can rot under the powers of condensation

Looks good...nice way to hide those large lights.

Nice work.
Whats the wattage output on those lights and how expensive are they?
