Well it was my sisters birthday yesterday, so i threw together this light fixture for her. (Got the ideas from second wind.) Took me a few hours of work and i thought it turned out pretty sweet. I hung it over her bed while she was gone, and she was so stoked when she saw it. thought some of you guys might think its kinda cool, so here are some pics

Its held by fishing line, and some drywall, screws and hooks, it sure feels pretty secure, when you push down on it and stuff.

NICE!!!

I like that you left the footstraps on.

Now we'll have to loan you a trainer kite to take her out and show her the ropes.

Ingenious! Got an old Slingshot LFT that's been collecting nothing but dust for the last few years. Always wanted to put it to good use, off the water that is! Will be implementing your idea on it!!

I actually have been thinking about, making these and selling them at first friday, the only problem is finding kiteboard for cheap, i think i'd sell them for around 80-130 dependign on what kiteboards i could find. But it would be a cool little buisness and also people might be more willing to buy them from a young 15 year old like me
