Here's a holiday gift idea (especially if you're buying for yourself):




Here's where you can find them: https://www.etsy.com/listing/265189241/dr-whites-illuminated-microphone?ref=listing-shop-header-2

If you love this kind of thing, here are a whole bunch more lighted art objects: http://illuminatedobjects.com/index.html

If you feel like doing some D-I-Y, for $22, you can get one of these from Hobby Lobby
http://www.hobbylobby.com/search/?text=microphone&quickview=119397
And for ten bucks, buy one of these from Ikea:

then cannibalize the Ikea light and install it in the Hobby Lobby mic.

lee - i think it's the same kit --- that's a pretty good mark-up he's got going on! looks like people are buying it - so good for him, i guess.

i bought a sure 55w at an auction years ago for $5 - the capsule (and most of the guts) were toast - so i did the same thing - made a desk lamp out of it. i probably have a total of $15 in it. not quite as fancy - but, i like it a lot.



bruce - that website has given me LOTS of ideas! very cool!

Wow. That is a markup. Ooh, side business opportunity! My husband just got involved with a local Makerspace, so we've been tossing around ideas of fun VO (me) Military (him) things we can make.
