Make: Online : Spray paint lamp

Spray paint lamp

Il Fullxfull.18496096
The future lamp for graffiti artists for sure, purchasable for $50 or a likely better as a (re)make -

This lamp is one of a kind - made from a vintage Krylon can in Portland, Oregon. The off/on switch is the spray nozzle. The arm clips onto any desk surface and swivels for your ultimate viewing experience. Light bulb included.

Would I get sued if I made these and sold them on eBay?

@Tim-

Not unless you post your intention to do so on a widely read blog that the artist is likely to read.

D'Oh!

WOW, is it just me? Everytime I post a project that could be dangerous to idiots, I get slammed for my idea. Nobody slamming you for the dangers of cutting into an aresol can, but if you don't see that coming you shouldn't own tools. 8^)
This lamp IS a neat artistic expresson. I'll bet the Krylon people would love to have them at the home office.

Damn. I LOVE the comments....

@Craig (Yeah...I was just looking at your 'power strip')

"WOW, is it just me? Everytime I post a project that could be dangerous to idiots.." and so on....

What are you responding to? 50% of the posts to date (3FEB08 0332 EST) love your idea outright. One wants to steal it and make money,but is uneasy. One wants to buy one NOW! And I told the one who wants to 'steal' it that he/she BUSTED themselves,so maybe don't try.
We are your friends, and want to learn with and from you.

Deep breath. Repeat as needed.Ohm........:)

BTW...on the reread...I dont see Craig's signature anywhere on the link....But THEY did say I would go blind....

What does 8^ mean?!? (if not typo....)

These lamps are the brain-child and soul of my best friend.... We got a good laugh upon reading the dim fellow's comment on ripping them off... It's all about hip hop. These are just one of many ways him and ourselves as a crew show our love for hip hop. In these days of brainwashed botty shakers it's nice to see some heads... respect due- 3D
