Hanging Lantern Ikea Hack

Step 3 Grind it open

 The next step is to grind the openings large enough to fit the lamp socket through.  I noticed that the entire unpainted portion seemed to be the same size as the socket, so I ground it all away.  On the top of the lantern I used the center punch to set a dent in the middle of the top.  I used the drill to start the hole then my grinder to remove the rest of flat portion on the top.
