Light Bulb Collection, Update 4 by adamlhumphreys

So, I kind of spread things out a bit and reduced the duplication of similar bulbs with some expansion space left I hope to use for candelabra based bulbs. Nothing totally new here except the purple AR-1 UV lamp on the upper right. I’ve had the modern NE-30 look-alike in the upper middle and the antique carbon bulb in the lower front right for a while. I’d love to get an NE-34 someday, but even as a collector, I’m still not really keen to pay much over $20 for a bulb.

Sorry for the larger, more obvious watermark. Some people just can’t take a hint.

Oh wow, didn't know they came in such interesting colours and shapes too!

Figural bulbs are definitely awesome.

you don't need to apologize for the watermark on your completely original work, and especially if it's crafts, and the watermark isn't obtrusive.

Those light bulbs look cool. But I usually treat them as a source of light rather than a decoration

My mother would probably enjoy something like that, haha.

... Someday I'd like to actually craft a bulb!

I hear that. And cool! Too bad they have to suck electricity to serve their fullest decorative purpose.

i wish i had something like that

It's never too late to start.

I wish there was a bigger market for this kind of stuff though. I'd love to make a more modern less expensive microcontroller based power supply, though the hum from the more expensive conventional transformers do give them a warm nostalgic tone.
