There's the possibility of getting molds and fabricating your own, out of molten metal.
That is WAY beyond my ability. Plus, where would I get a refractor and mold?
Contact the manufacturer, and if the refractor is plastic, you can just use a plastic mold machine, there are plans for them.
Melting the metal is very easy.

No way I could cast something like that. I don't even know how to bend sheet metal!  :P

Try watching some videos on how to do that.

Jealous! If I saw that on Craigslist near me I'd be buying it immediately.

I like my lamps thick, my ballasts heavy, and my fixtures tough.

My parents probably won't let me get it (that OV-15 was probably the last straw lol, apparently I don't have room for 2 cobraheads...) but I will try.

I would think streetlights are small, just 2 feet or so, you can store them in boxes.

But look on the bright side, it's not like there's a shortage of streetlights. :)

There is a shortage of antique gumballs like this that are affordably priced.
