I would like to own one of those MilkyCandles some day, but they don't come up for sale very often, so since I'm on vacation I thought I'd improvise and try to build me some type of wanna-be MilkyCandle.
Here's the result:
Finally a use for the cigar holder, I had it double as a more secure stand:
Here's the little glower:
Parts used.
Tiablo 9 - took head off
Cap from Grapefruit Juice
1 strip of reflective tape on the body, just for fun
Parts from the wrist strap of the hospital bracelet (darn high blood pressure). This is what made the little round hole look on the cap, plus I needed a little bit of filler since the cap was loose without it.
I have the older Tiablo 9 and for some reason it's really ringy/donuty, so I took the head off and it sure was nice and floody...hardly noticed the rings. I noticed the emitter is on the body so this is what inspired me to try a knock-off Milky. This is by no means as sophisticated as a Milky. My hat goes off to Scott, I want one of his.
Thoughts?
This will have to make due until a real MilkyCandle shows up on the B/S/T forum.
