Hello again to everyone!
This article is dedicated to all people who love unusual things related to industrial style. The author will tell us how to make a hook-hanger unusual, but familiar to all of us - it will be in the form of a light bulb. If you are interested, and want to find out what happens in the end result, and what we need for this, we continue to read the article.
We will need the following.
Instruments:
- pliers;
- screwdriver;
- plastic dishes for mixing cement;
- unnecessary toothbrush;
- gloves and goggles (in case the fallen bulb breaks and the fragments fly in different directions).
Materials:
- cement;
- a bulb;
- screw.
Let's start manufacturing!
We select a special place where we will manufacture homemadeThe work will be a bit dusty.
Now we take an ordinary light bulb, you can use a burnt out lamp, or purchase it in a store, it costs a little, I think everyone can get it. Next, with the help of nippers, carefully remove the core of the cartridge, through the hole we remove the remaining glass, and all internal parts. When performing this operation, it is recommended to wear goggles, as fragments can fly off into the eyes, as well as wear gloves so as not to injure your hands.
When everything is ready, we clean the inside of the light bulb with a toothbrush, removing small particles of debris.
The next step is to prepare the solution.
To do this, we need cement, sand, water and a container where we will mix the solution. When mixing a solution of small volumes, it is easy enough to miscalculate with the right amount of water, so try to add it in small portions. The author used this ratio: 1.25 mugs of cement for 4 tablespoons of water.
After the solution is ready, with the help of a small spoon we place it inside the bulb, tightly fill its cavity.
Now put the screw in the hole about half its length, then carefully cover with the solution.When everything is ready, leave the product to dry for 72 hours, thereby allowing the solution to harden well.
After the solution has finally set, take a light bulb and remove the glass bulb of the light bulb, just gently hit it with pliers and it will crack. When performing this operation, it is unforgettable to wear safety glasses. After the glass is removed, go over the surface of the formed form with a toothbrush in order to clean off small particles of glass.
Now the final stage of work remains.
We determine the place of the future hanger. Next, using a drill, drill a hole for a screw, screw in a light bulb. The original hanger is ready to use, it turned out to be quite strong, and will withstand any thing from your wardrobe.
