Here is this years xmas break project, I decided to make a lamp, allowing me to spend some time in the garage and not kill any family members!
Made from Fiesta ST pistons and some pipe
12v too so it can be used in the van ๐Ÿ™‚

Very nice...is that the 'spare' 4th piston from my engine? If so, top job on upcycling it.

Drac, Its a review on Auto express of the Ford Fiesta, seeing as it is made form Ford Fiesta pistons I though it was a fitting backdrop ๐Ÿ˜‰
