The Ehlers Lid-light

Materials: Knodd lid, Drill, rubberthingy from car, green wire, 2 Hemma, 2 Sparsam Description: I bought a Knodd and used the bucket as a planter. Since I had a green theme going, I had been looking for some green pendels. One day I found the lid, while cleaning, and made this: 1: I measured up the existing holes in the celing wire-exit, and drilled two holes in the lid. 2: Measured across the lid, to find the widest spot. Then, using the bumb in the lid, I drilled 2 holes, directly across eachother

Piet Indoor Stove by Fredrik Hyltén-Cavallius


Piet is a chimney-free indoor stove by Fredrik Hyltén-Cavallius that burns ethanol instead of wood. With a brass reflector, this stove gives off no smoke or soot and can be placed wherever convenient. There is a layer of rock wool fire insulation between the reflector and the outer ceramic shell, so Piet can be placed near walls or furniture. The stove takes its name from Danish architect and mathematician Piet Hein who made the super ellipse popular in the sixties.
