jakoz` patented crack whore megabudget macguyver bulb recipe:
Ingredients:
1 clear light bulb
1 coke cap
1 pen
1) Breaking the bulb (note: wrap bulb in teatowel NOW):
First, the aim is to have no cracks in it afterwards. The heat means that itll last about two seconds if theres cracks... if it happens chuck it out and get another bulb.
For a normal lightbulb, cut on the big indent about halfway along the metal end. Get a large carving knife (metals thin) and gradually cut off around it. You will end up cutting just above the end of the glass. This means the metal can stay attached later, can protect the glass, and can connect neatly to the coke cap later. Get a pair of long nosed pliers and gradually (from the top) break away the inside glass of the bulb Go to step two.
If the bulb has a large plastic end, it can be easier going through the top. The plastic is thin and brittle, and heating a screwdriver over a candle to melt it into the plastic a little, the giving it a twist, should remove the plastic right away. Then just dig the shit inside away until you can reach the point where the glass starts. Then just break away the inside glass bit by bit with longnose pliers.
2) Washing the bulb:
Wash the shit out of it. Its lined with all sorts of toxic crap.
3) The lid:
Get the coke lid. Whack an X in it with two stabs from a carving knife. Hollow the pen out and push it through. The coke can should fit more or less perfectly on the metal bulb top.
done
(provided for entertainment purposes only. if you sever an artery doing this, dont blame me)
