Interesting concept and pretty well executed. A question, why use the colored wire? I think the bare metal would look much better. A suggestion to improve your presentation, I am not a stickler on correct spelling but I think you might want to run your text through a spell checker on your next instructable. A suggestion not related to presentation, Perhaps if you doubled the rings on the bottom row it would have a more finished look to it. I hope I haven't been too critical. I doubt my first effort will be done as well as this one. Maybe with a little better spelling but not the rest. ;)

Although I didn't make this, i made a collapsible pocket sized version with some wood,wire,soda pop off tabs,a 9v battery,and a flashlight bulb.

This can be done alot faster with a dremel tool diamond cutting wheel, just make sure the rings dont fly off everywhere!!
