Jan 7 2008Arts And Crafts Time: Melted LEGO Lamp
Two LEGO posts in a row, hot dog! Now I'm pretty sure melting LEGO blocks into a massive gaudy mess of a lampshade is sacrilegious, so I'm posting this with the hope that someone out there will beat up the person responsible for this atrocity. Why not just make a LEGO lamp? That would be cool. Putting a bunch of LEGO blocks into round cake pan and baking them in the oven is not. It's sad and it makes me angry. While I'd never wish anyone harm (despite my prior statement), I do hope that melting LEGO blocks give off some sort of sterilizing gas so this person can't reproduce.

I wonder if the blocks ae translucent...?
otherwise, this "invention" pretty much sucks

Next up, the "inventor" puts a 200W bulb on this lamp, leaves it on for a long time, and the lampshade becomes one big droopy-looking thing.
I don't really like it. Anyone who would lose creativity with legos (and destroy them), is uncool.

hmm interesting idea. May be good for the kids' room. Yea I wonder if it really works, and if the bulb gets too hot, would it start melting around there?

Indoor lamps don't allow for 200w bulbs, 40 or 60 is standard wattage. Odds are this person did this in their oven at about 500 degrees F and probably on or in a metal bowl. Also it is open on the top and heat rises, so I can't see it getting very hot.
You all sound like a bunch of kids. How many of you still live at home?
