Pin Lamp: PIMP

Besides throwing heavy balls from a great distance at it, the probably second best thing you can do with a bowling pin is make a lamp out of it. My latest lamp is called "Pimp" (PIn + laMP = PIMP).

I know that it is a very obvious thing to do, but sometimes, it just is really nice to do the most obvious. It also brought me one step closer in my eternal quest for "Is-there-anything-sensible-you-can-get-out-of-an-energy-saving-bulb-?"

For people in the audience that still think it is not good enough for my standards, then I can comfort you with that this "let-me-do-this-it-only-takes-2-seconds" project turned out to be a rather epic journey along un-drillable wood, multi layered armored plastic pin wrapping, finding a bulb that fits that shape and blood sweat and tears....

Roller-Lamp

There is something with roller-skate wheels that is very hard to beat; they run smoothly, feel heavy, are solid, are tough, carry cool text messages, are indestructible...

The tin can matches the size of the the energy saving spot light inside precisely

The chase for how-to-get-anything-sensible-out-of-energy-saving-bulbs continues...

Greenhouse

Hooray! My greenhouse is finished. It allows us to lengthen a late-summer dinner with several hours!

I got all front windows from a friend that replaced his own. The windows are 80 years old and in perfect condition (just some new putty around the edges and paint). My neighbour found the windows on the side. He found them in the inner city of Copenhagen next to an appartment block that is renovated (ooooold windows, my best guess is 1890). The doors are made from scratch. 

I like old glass, it deforms the things you see through it. According to my father in law, a light architect, the colour of the light is much better than modern double windows, so I think so too...

Lucerna non alcoholico

I've had this plan for years, actually, since the first time I drunk Crodino ("aperitivo non alcoholico"). Extremely cute bottles deserve better than being thrown away. So finally, I turned 4 cuties into bitter-sweet lightning.

The stand is made of 2 layers of thick multiplex glued together
