Hi all,
I'm looking for someone who can help me figure out which power sockets I should be ordering for the studio lights project (and which 10 mm button I should be ordering for another project), and then, when I have all the 'pieces' ready, help me put together the first light or two. I'm relatively new to soldering and very new to electrical, so I'll probably have lots of beginner questions. Please contact me directly if interested (
marks...@gmail.com). I'm probably low on my estimate, but was thinking it might be 2-3 hours total (maybe 30-60 minutes to figure out the power socket and buttons, and later 90-120 minutes for putting it together [once all pieces are ready]). Was thinking $30/hour. But open to negotiation, no idea what the going rate would actually be.
Some additional details: I'd like to attempt putting together some Studio Lights:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhbMnQt14_o is a bit light in specifics (even looking through discussions, patreon, etc) I'm left with ambiguous items to get like; power sockets, medium thickness acetate & diffusion sheets.
I'm looking for someone familiar with the electronics lab that can help me figure out which power sockets I should be ordering, what gauge wire I should be using, and to help me put the first one or two together [there are 5] and I can hopefully do the rest on my own.
I'd also like this person to confirm I'm ordering the correct 10 mm buttons for

I can be reached at
marks...@gmail.com, I have a day job so the 'putting together' help would most likely have to be either a weekday night or a weekend. I'm occasionally in Lenox on Fridays.
Thanks in advance,
Mark
