here you see after the preparation I have poured the cement mixture.

The yellow tape is removable core for the LED strip to sit.I stuck it to the bottom of the bulb,so when I remove the bulb the tape also comes out easily and makes a space for led to sit comfortably.

Taking Out the Cast

Slowly remove the glass bulb.gentle taps will help it coming off.

cast from plastic container will easily come off as it has a draft already.

connect the battery and pour some water .
