    Cool find on a clean out

    Did a clean out today and found this thought it was pretty cool. Its an old fire extinguisher turned into a lamp. Haven't tested it or done much research other than a quick search on ebay.





    Born to loose, live to win.

    Sweet! Though it breaks my heart to see it made into a lamp. I collect old fire stuff to display in my office (I'm a county fire marshal ). That one is pretty good shape and hasn't been polished up. I dig it!

    Donate it to your local fire department as a lamp!

    Thanks for the pictures, I would keep it, as is. They don't make things like they use too!

    Thanks for all the feedback. I might see if it still lights up and stick it on ebay they seem to got for around 100, if not I'll just save it because it looks cool.
