Caves From Garden Lights

[Skirge]

Made two caves today from two garden lights, we had the solar power ones that look like rocks, took them to bits gave them a REALLY GOOD clean.

These ones

just took everything out of them and placed a bit of slate across the top, then my bought double cave thing ontop of the slate.. so I ended up with this.

B & Q did do some amazing rock lights that were a rather large stone with a blind hole drilled in to them.

They were selling them at a discount at one point around £4:00 for two.

I have some lights likethat (thanks Scatz) so when they are worn out and battery gone, I will see what else i can use them for!

I am better off leaving them hollowed out like I have right now or adding some PVC tubing.. I had one left and have done this with it it.
I was less brutal with the hammer and managed to keep the front hole circular this time so the PVC tube is a nice tight fit.
I could still add tubing to the two I have in the tank at the moment, would be more of a mess on, I was just wondering if it would be worth it.
