I like it too, but it might be cheaper to just go blow something up and take a picture of it and paste it round an existing lamp. Never pass up a chance to blow something up for fun.
Better still, approximate as a series of 0.75"-thick horizontal slices, cut out from wood or clear plastic,stack, glue and enjoy.
The clear version could then be sanded and carved to full, rounded shape. It'd take for-frickin' ever (helps if you know someone with a CNC laser cutter) but oh, the kewlness.

...a little pricey, and I'm guessing hard to dust...?
ReplyDelete(It would be cool to watch The Atomic Cafe by, though!)
When you said a little pricy, I was thinking the $200-300 range...I was kind of unprepared for $1400...luckily I wasn't drinking anything at the time.
ReplyDeleteCould you not make the real thing for that cash now? Just sayin'. It IS cool though!
ReplyDelete+1 on Guffaw on watching the Atomic Cafe! (I have it on DVD so am I a nerd?)
Me likey.
ReplyDelete@Keads - Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI had it on VHS, gone now. AND,
'It Came From Hollywood'. for which the rights are too expensive for DvD, so they won't make it!
Not to put too fine a point on it, but it looks more like a radioactive head of cauliflower than a nuclear mushroom cloud.
