Turn your old film camera into a desk lamp

Yeah, like I'm going to vandalize my Hasselblad to make a lamp with it… When hell freezes maybe. ;)
 
I noticed that it was a "Cocina" camera? Never heard of it so that might make a great candidate for the transformation. I am sitting here looking at an old Yashica that might work.

He meant to say Cosina. They made cheap, M42 and Pentax K mount cameras and lenses in the 70's and 80's. They also made cameras for other manufacturers. If I am not mistaken they even built a Canon and a Nikon consumer grade camera (can't remember the models). I am not sure if they are even still around.
