Desk Two

A newer photograph of my workdesk. At left is a Lego tower "house" surrounding a glitter lamp - not coincidentally, one advertising a mortgage company, with house-shaped glitters. In the upper portion is a second lamp, and a Lego garden is visible through windows. Light emits from small openings higher up, and all heat is shunted up the chimney to spin the vane in the top. A lot of fun to build, but just try changing the bulbs!

Comment by Jonas Clark-Elliott on April 12, 2012 at 11:23pm: No, no, *I* didn't like the weird stripey front. There were a lot of wonky things I did with the colors as I got low on bricks. When I rebuilt it during a bulb change, it got streamlined. Next rebuild is going to make bulb changing easier - I'm going to cut some sort of door in the lamp's base, probably, to get at that bulb, and put a Lego house door up top so I can back that socket out. The earlier version of the house, before I added a glitter lamp, had only one light, and it was set up that way: the socket clipped in place, and could be pulled out through a door on the back.

Comment by Jonas Clark-Elliott on April 12, 2012 at 11:04pm: The older incarnation of it, anyway. It's been mostly rebuilt since then and the colors on the lower part have gone from silly stripes to solid blocks.

...

No...no, I definitely shouldn't.

Comment by Jonas Clark-Elliott on July 7, 2011 at 4:29am: My collection space is indeed very, very full. I have started consolidating items on the wall to make more room, and anything flat has migrated to the sloped ceiling.
