Materials needed:

1) 60 Watt light bulb (other wattages can be used)

2) Power cord (can be scavenged from anything)

3) Encasing (in this case, a “Jolt Energy Drink”)

4) Wire Strippers

5)Electric Tape (if you want to go the fast and easy route, a socket from a lamp and got it to fit with some slight grinding)

6) Soldering Iron

7) Solder

This makes a pretty basic lamp, but it is still a lamp.

The Frog can crusher is easy to use, just place the can into the base and then tread on the foot pedal, within no time at all you will be crushing cans like a pro. Mind you I am wondering exactly how long this device is likely last, it does not look that sturdy.
