OK, I had 6 bulbs (15 cents each). The first two broke after several tries, I was wondering how much force was needed, these things are surprisingly resistant. Due to the large force needed, these bulbs were broken to many very tiny pieces. But I learned the trick: the bulbs should be scratched before hitting it with the hammer. Then, much smaller force is enough to break them and the broken glass remains in larger pieces - which is more appealing. The next bulb is here:http://www.pbase.com/stfchallenge/image/93354439 and later I sacrified this one for this theme. I have still 2 bulbs intact, but I will smash them too later. Cheers, MCsaba

Nice! How many light bulbs did you have to break to get this? - Warren
