Current lamp project. Here are a few parts, mostly found items. Hopefully will complete it soon. I’m excited about this one. Found some killer knob and tube switches in my basement that I am using on this and another project.

Parts for my latest lamp. Finished pic to follow. Most of these are from an old shoe factory.
Made this lamp for my music room a few years ago. Used French horn from local antique store, old walnut plank and a shade from an old lamp that I had. Made the base to mirror the size of the shade.
This is a lamp that I made about 10 years ago. Mostly from parts that I found in an old machine shop. I believe the main body is a line lubricator from a steam locomotive.
