Make O Scale yard lights - by Charlie Fisher
This idea was submitted via e-mail along with photos and the following narrative:

The other day I was working on my other hobby and found out a way to make light fixtures that can be as tall or short as you want and they don't cost a bunch I used 1/4" O D  brake line piping.  Flare one end (that end will be the shade) weld a washer on the other and drill two holes. I used radio shack grain of wheat bulbs and soldered on two wires using shrink tubing. They work great don't look bad and don't cost $10.00 each.
