Old radio becomes lamp. crocodiletears September 17 2010, 15:21:05 UTC

An old radio missing its guts

Plus drilling holes in the top with a hole saw attachment

Plus my questionable wiring skills

Equals mad scientist style light fixture. It has a dimmer switch, so it can be turned up high enough for a reading light, but my favorite is having it turned down to a menacing glow while watching a scary movie.

Thanks! I'm really proud it's been in use for 8 months without causing a fire.

I like to think it's at least fairly super cool.

Thanks!
