Hi cpfers,
I don't know if this has been done before..
I was emptying the recycle bin for plastic and found lots of bottles. 1Litre, 2Litre, 600mils and etc. Looking at them I was thinking if the cone area is suitable for reflector purpose.
Chrome spray paint will do a nice mirror finish for reflection(orange peel not included) and the opening is already there for bulb fixture.
So is the angle all right? I haven't got any chrome paint so I am going to use some kitchen al. foil to try it later tonight. I have a feeling it will be a waste of time. It will be great if I can recycle these plastic bottles for reflector uses. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif
