Will be interested in your progerss and redesign....in other words "Steal your Ideas!!" :)
Thanks man - yeah Im wanting to run some LED lighting on the new shelves. The plan is to custom build them to primarily fit the vehicles and shelving for the smaller stuff above them.

I don't know if you are aware of the website tomtop, that is who I buy all my led light strip from for a fraction of the price of everyone else in NZ.
You can also get three colour ones as well with a remote for about $25.00USD plus postage.
I have found this website really good for nick nack type toys and fun stuff like solar powered cockroaches etc etc :D :D

Cool stuff Hads. If you've got a collection of things you love, you might as well immerse yourself in it.

Finding sites like this is always helpful especially if you use electronic lighting in your hobby making or even home renovations.
Abit like Adam savage using led strip light in his rocketeer jetpack rocket boosters. :D

Just will like to add my stash in here as well.
They have been sitting in brown boxes as I am still renting.
Most of these are mint in box and have never been opened.
Eventually I hope to open a Star Wars Theme Cafe and have this all out for display.

Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
The Force shall free me.
