Because I cannot afford the real ones and mostly because I like building my own stuff. Next up is to prime it and then finish coat it. The base is an old Lionel lamp post base and the brass tubing is from my local hardware store . I had the chain and clasps in a junk/parts box .
This inspired me an d since I had a broken light post that I bought at a train show for $1.00 I had nothing to lose but a little time.
