Is that what you really want to do?
No I would prolly snag one of those remnants from F&K and make one from scratch first.
I saw a post by fluter saying he stitched the one in his avatar. At first guess I would imagine a short "fell" and perhaps some other wizardry. It was an interesting exercise though. But since the lightbulb is already invented I think I will try to skip the Edison routine (10,000+ failures)
I may try taking out the stitches half way up, and seeing how they fit. If good will just lock them down there, if not, all the way out they come.
