I cut mine apart, due to the concerns with warping in the oven.... with that said, you don't know what you don't know...... I had no idea until after the fact that there was such a big concern with cutting, moisture, and all the other things that have been discussed on these forums. I did use the 125mm CFL from Oracle, so far we love them. No issues to date, I added them the week before the Fall Dragon, and have had no issues. (got a lot of positive feedback at the gatherings)
I noticed the set being offered on this thread were cut a bit different then what I did, but I would think it would be to each his own........ These seem to be cut straight up and down, were I actually slid an exacto type knife under the lip of the clear lense and went around it 2-3 times before I could actually seperate the lense from the housing. I think this allowed me to get a better seal with the epoxy I used to seal them back together. So far knock on wood, no moisture issues, and I love the look..... here's a couple of pictures you decide....
