My name is Gille Monte Ruici, I make sculptures, and particularly bots, starting from recycled matter and of waste.
Few months ago I already sent you two hacks. (See them here and here).
Here is a new one, called : KROBY the snake lamp.
To do this I used a KROBY light fixture.

Originally, I had the standard model. I wanted to customize the luminaire to match the spirit of the room, where it is now installed.
I kept the structure, which I completed with metal washbasin siphons. These twists thus represent the body of a snake.
At each end, I dressed the lamps with grid lamp shades. Finally I fixed barbecue hooks reminiscent of the mouth of the snake with its venomous hook. The set gives a very airy and unique support!

His robots are also featured in the book Assembled: Transform Everyday Objects Into Robots.

Gille’s IKEA robot lamps

The IKEA KVART lamps were added to these bots as “arms”. See more.
This is a younger version of the KVART bots, with the addition of 2 feet from a Sultan bed, besides KVART lamps. Read more.
The post Kroby, the snake lamp appeared first on IKEA Hackers.
