Cant really find a topic of the above thus start one.
Any diyer here who like to show/discuss their creation is welcome.
Anything goes ... table, stool, wall fixture, frame art,
I'll start by my latest GI table lamp ...
First pic is direct connection, second pic is hook up to a variable resistor as a conventional dimmer doesnt work on that bulb.

Interesting topic but I think any new project to show off require some time before the end product gets to post. Which is prob you don't see much diy topic here cause the progress too long.
From time to time you see some diy project pop up here but it's not written as diy ...... it's more like home made wooden box etc.
Hmm, it will be great if all those post is accumulated on a tread ...
Here's my latest ... Cement block lamp.

Okay ... its still in touch up process but just fire up to see the effect ...
The gap between the two cement is a tad big at 6cm, I think 4cm will be nicer. What u peeps think ?

Ic ... was thinking of wiring it to the car batt but that will hinder the mobility of the device.
Neat wiring u have there.

i thought u like, ask for some1 to do it. long tme d i wanna do that. not gonna happen anyway if u dont have the tools
Erm ... yea, you need a drill, drill bit and a core bit for it.
Tricky part is the spacing so that the wine doesnt knock on each other.
Thats all you need, drill is not in d pic.

might aswell pay someone to do it instead buying those stuff.

Well, depend on individual. For me, its done and on the wall is 10% satisfaction ... the process of doing it is 90%

TS, are you using copper piping? if yes, where u buy?
Copper piping ... yes. I made this long ago to collect the rain water into the urn.
You can get the copper piping at any hardware store. Just that they might not have all the fittings o the shelve.
