Here you go SWTX, and by the way, that looks VERY cool

Thanks, banditone! Yep, I think both the house and the lights are really distinctive.

Honestly, its been so long, I can't really remember. And all my pictures are stashed out in boxes in my garage. LOL. I want to say it was above the portico on the house itself, but I really can't remember. I've got to keep looking for pictures. LOL ;)

At WGa, the 6 NPC groups live in a sorority dorm. They have 3 large picture windows in their lobby. Each group have lights showing the Greek letters in lights. Haven't paid much attention to how they were done since the Alpha Gams' lights are behind a large entertainment center and curtains.

wow - these are beautiful! i so wish my school had had houses.. i love looking at pictures of other chapter's houses.

did anyone ever figure out where these were made?

SWTXBelle 04-13-2007 07:32 PM

I think someone could make some money if they could make them!

Tom Earp 04-14-2007 03:14 PM

Many times there are local companies who can make them. It then matters as to cost!:eek:

I would see one of LXA hanging from our new Chapter house!

If you have a tech. school there, contact one of the Profs and see if they could do this as a class project and get paid. It would be cheaper and give the department some money for supplies and extra for them!

Wood out doors not good, so some kind of metal!

I am still impressed with the SX at My Alama Mater, stainless that is inclosed and back lit for the Badge!

We don't really have these at my school...but they look great.
I could make one with random parts in the engineering labs and the shop, maybe an interesting project for later....hmmmmm
You could just make the bulbs screw-in and then they could easily be replaced and you could use different colors for gems.

Funny you would mention this point!

I have a set of plans from IHQ!

There were certain size of bulbs that could only be bought from IHQ! Odd size of course.

But there are enough smart Brothers and Sisters who know different!:D

We do not have one up yet, but none of these days?

Why not be the first?

So what the heck, just do it and be the envy of all!:)


The Gem idea is neat!!!!!!!

I'm 99.9% sure that it was centered above the portico and not on the side. The side of the house wasn't very visable from the road if I remember correctly.

LOL, he didn't mean the actual side of the house (as opposed to the front of the house.) He was asking it was ON the house (as opposed to on the portico.)
