i see there are a few of these for sale on ebay...i know i would be taking a risk but how bad do you think it would be to tinker a diy lamp design in it?

i was thinking the bulb be outside and then just use a mirror to shine the light where i need it to go?

i thought about that too but keep inmind that you will have to make the bead 1/2" or less because it passes through a light wheel whiuch is relativly small...
