Not just for da fishes

About

peel off copper cap at bottom of lightbulb. Most tutorials I read said to try to break the black glass in the bottom with a hammer, I ended up using a needle tool and steak knife to expand the hole from the inside so the glass just cracked and I could peel it out. Next is to crack out the innards, I used those same tools and needle nose pliers to grab and pull.

for a base (not shown, too eager to post) I hot glued a metal button to the bottom...

thanks for looking! comments encouraged!
