Lord Geordie Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Having made a set of 20 lights from spent clear pigeon shells, I decided to make a set of multi colour ones instead. This is a 30 light string using 4 different colour shells. http://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=c4-feed-u&v=WsHllj1G5k8 Each shell is trimmed, a brass base glued to the top, and a LED glued in the primer pocket! As you can see, these are far brighter than the last set. Again though, they use 3 AA batteries. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
