[goodoldtimes]

Hey guys, I've been reading what you've been doing for years now I decided to share my works..

First question: I'm gonna build a case from an old TV table, which is dark brown furniture. A little black will used too outside of the case. What color do you think should be th lights and inside paint?

Red's look good with dark brown wood. Or you could go with white or black.

Lights: Red, White.
Paint: Red, Black, Brown.

Personally, i'd avoid UV light with wood. I think it would show up defects, although I could be wrong.

What do you guys think about UV I'm with Dave on this. Depending on the finish that was used on the wood it might actually react under UV. I think polyurethane varnish glows slightly green. test it and see, buy a black light for halloween and see what happens
