I’m tossing around two ideas for my final project.
The first idea is a solar-powered television, set to a static channel. I find it fascinating that 1% of the static on old television screens is the leftover glow from the big bang. To power, the display with the sun seems to be fitting. I would build a custom housing to place the television in and leave it permanently on a static channel playing the most incredible show on earth.

My second idea is to carve a globe on the lathe. I’m thinking of creating two bowls that can fit together inside the bowls will be the circuit to power a light. The light will rotate around the globe like the sun.
I started testing my lathe skills today and like the results.
