DIY builds are fun and cheap to do but may not stack well in comparison to commercial-based fixtures for beginners. While the concept of assembling cob-based fixtures has been repeatedly demonstrated by many here, including myself, there's a bunch to be taken in that happens with lots of practice, which can be costly. In short, if it's your first diy build, don't expect your own fixture to be running in par with commercial fixtures.

Captainmorgan has a right to not like me, as I've been known to start shit with him and Area51, so we're naturally prone to butt heads. Area 51 has been building led fixtures for awhile now but started building cob fixtures around late summer of last year.
As for Fran, I don't know what their deal is with me exactly. They seem very good at finding and pasting succulent LED news articles though, so we thank you Franny,
As for the rest of em' that don't take lightly of me, they'll say one thing but are truly bonded to one of the other cob fixture company owners from this site, plain and simple as that. I'll butt heads with anyone who needs it but am naturally inclined to sympathize and assist with anyone who isn't apart of a special interest group or following. As for my customers, they have nothing but great things to say about me, especially when comparing my service to other cob based companies, no names that need mentioned.
