Kmart update–bloody sold out !!!

Rang to check stock before I left to make sure they have stock then went to Stud Park to buy two of them. Waited over 1/2 hour in the service desk queue and was then informed none left – hopeless.

I've been reloading this bookmarked page for several weeks now since contacting Kmart with ETA late April early May. Kmart says high demand for this item!

UPDATE; Yay...looks like Kmart USB RGB LED strip lights are back in stock. See my previous posts about COVID procurement issues. Better get down there before they sell out again.

Batman lights - first lot (part 7)

Now that the LED strip lights have arrived I can grab the first bat set off the bat pile and continue on working down that first lot of bat orders.




First set off the waiting bat pile is KEITH and ERIK.



Off we go...using standard T50 8mm staples to fix the LED strip to the MDF contour. Note that I DO NOT remove the backing which allows for shuffling the strip back and forth where they converge near the bat head and besides all that it not stick very well to MDF.




Old guy pensioner thriftiness - this pair of front MDF blanks were a bit short on height but we can still use them.

Hand sanitiser in short supply

Lucky to get a 400ml bottle of the stuff.

ET found two small squeeze bottles; I’m doing a transfer so we can keep one bottle in each of the cars.

Aerosol spray paint

As posted running low on flat black spray paint and with Caribbean Market now permanently closed (bugger) where do I now get my spray paint for $1.50 a can – for 10.

Bought three cans from Bunnings during my shopping trip. Bunnings price $3.98 and SuperCheap Auto even more expensive @ $4.39
