i never thought of using a glass container for the VFT to be potted in. I've raised VFT for the last 5 years and have always used plastic vented pots to put them in. Then having their pots is another container filled with distilled water. I am currently making another sort of terrarium for VFT. think I might try your suggestions. when i have finished it i will post pics. I will be making it an instructable as well.bthanks for the input.

well thank you very much for the kind words.

it is in the planter contest. thanks

When degutting the insides of the light bulb. If its a standard regular light bulb, then this shouldn't be a problem. Once I have broke the black end part. Then you should be able to either take a screw driver or needle nose pliers and poke it inside breaking the glass part inside thats held together with 2 copper wires. If the cooper wires are still connected to the sides of the bulb. Then take some needle nose pliers and just either cut or wiggle the wires until they come loose from the bulb. Then using the pliers just pull out the pieces from inside. If they are still to big for you to pull out. Then just use the pliers to break the glass innards into smaller pieces. Hope that helps you.

Thanks

I have even went farther with the trim in other projects. Adding some multple levels of trim. I find it seems to add more depth to the project. Plus when adding the added layers of trim. Ill stain them a darker color. It brings out the layers more with the contrasts between pieces.

I suppose you can give it a try. If you do try it. let us know and post some pics. Im curious too. If you have the money you can get one of those small whisper compressor. My friend had one and he would have to check to see if it was running or not. Thats how quite it is.
