Description

Need to install some T8-sized fluorescent or LED bulbs in your home or shop, but don't want to shell out $20+ for a commercial fixture? Pick up some dirt-cheap T8 replacement 'tombstones' and some wood, then 3D print some of these adapters and assemble your own!

The tombstones that I sourced seem to be intended for mounting on sheets, with very little space for the built-in 'clips' to engage. Wood that is thin enough to properly engage these clips would also not have been strong enough for my application, so I designed these clips with an internal 'shelf' that engages the clips with a very tight fit. The design also incorporates two screw holes, as my tombstones did not have any way to fasten them to material other than via the built-in clips.

Tombstones - https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0721MNGZ2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1

No. 6 wood screws were used in my application and have a slight interference fit with the holes. Other sizes may work just fine.
