Inspired by Loek Vellkoop, I recently chopped up a scrap kid’s bike to see all the materials I could reuse from it. One of the elements that really struck me was the wheel rim after I had taken all the spokes out.
Solid, made from steel, and perforated with precisely spaced holes, I thought it would be cool to light it up with LEDs as an accent lamp, or just something cool to trip out on. So, that’s what I did, and I’m proud to say that I whipped it together in an afternoon while my family was out shopping.
