Wood Turned Lamp

I've seen versions of this kind of lamp around the internet but I figured I'd give it a shot. It's made from several different varieties of wood.

Take the blanks and put them up on the lathe. Using your various turning tools shape them to your hearts content.

Repeat for each one of your different wood blanks.

The base blank needs a the hole through it like all of them but it also needs one through the side for the power cable. The rest I drilled through at different points to allow for shifting them to create an interesting form overall.

Once you have the pieces positioned the way you want them, its time to wire the whole thing up. I purchased a cord, lamp harp, and bulb kit from home depot and assembly is crazy simple.

Put a lamp shade on it, screw in a light bulb, plug it in, and enjoy!
