Here's the way the base is constructed. I'm trying to make it float, but I think I overdid it a bit. I'm going to make the round legs smaller and have the paper come down further. But I think the basic idea works.

Looking good, Josh.
ReplyDeleteI was emptying my paper shredder a week or two ago and thinking that there must be something better to do with all those strips. (especially the junk mail!)
Also I am wondering how have you approached the issue of potential flammability?

Thanks Steven. Yes I have thought about flammability: there is an internal sleeve that keeps the paper away from the bulb. Also I will note in the instructions that a cool CFL bulb must be used.
