Because the slats are angled, you could also paint one side of the wood with a contrasting color before cutting out the pieces. Then, if assembled in the same direction, the lamps would change color gradients as you move around while giving a slight tweak to the warmth/coolness of the light to match the room.
Based on my experience as a handyman installing high end lighting, I would say it's a $9000 light fixture you got there. Great design Bob. And nice to use stuff laying around+ New materials+ 3d printing in one project.
🤣 You must be overcharging your customers.
Hahahaha surely you meant 900?? 9 grand is insane
@@boyo1348nope. I Have installed multiple lights over $10k in value . Not including my labor.
@@boyo1348Not in a $4 mil house
In the US there's a HUGE undercover inflation. It's insane to ask 9k for that.
Bob. Thanks for sharing!
I do not have a 3D printer or a Laser but it does not stop me from watching and learning from your videos. You keep doing what you're doing and I will keep watching. Thanks again Bob.
Happy New Year to you and your family.
Agreed! Not every video has to be a "how-to" video, some (like the Karmann Ghia ones) can be "what happened" video.
Maybe an idea for the future upgrade of this lamp: a small light placed in the tube, pointing upward, serving as a low-intensity ambient light 😄 This was a great project nonetheless!
Could even do some diffused LED's pointing up at the ceiling as well!
Bob! This light fixture is AMAZING, and I love it. It is a great project to close out 2023 and to finish your reno. I always enjoy watching your channel and am inspired to make stuff even when I don't know what the heck I'm doing. Kudos and best wishes for a great 2024!
That new dining room light is super duper cool! Love it! Might you be selling the laser cut pieces as a flat pack to assemble? Might you sell the shade in different lengths?
I have similar black metal open top tubes - each came with a wooden gate construction kit (one of those ones that is just a frame and you provide your own pleats). There's an option in there to construct the gate one way or another, and a tube is left over based on the option you choose. Of course, I kept the spare metal, for reasons.
In the last few months you seem much more relaxed and happy. I enjoy watching your videos so much now. I watch them sooner and watch ones that I don't plan to build just because you are fun to watch. Great video!
This came out fantastic can I just say thanks for showing some love for laser cut items in such a practical way. Awesome job Bob!
Stunning work, Bob! Really beautiful light fixture!!! 😃
And you could even paint it - if you wanted to! But I'd do it before cutting the material, because the black border looks fantastic!
Happy new year! And stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Very nice light, love all the problem solving in your videos 👍
That's pretty cool! As for those who don't like your methods, you have the tools, it would be silly not to use them. I will probably never have a laser like yours, but it doesn't make the project less interesting to me.
Been watching your work for a while now Bob and this lamp is probably my favorite build. It's a nice use of a variety of skills, something anyone can do to one style or another based on skills and materials. The look is very unique, a little sci-fi, little art deco, little mathematical, little artsy. A nice combination of styles. I do wonder how it would look with different sized and angled slats, maybe spaced out more to let more light through; would have been cool if it was adjustable like one of those toys that can turn into a ball or star, but that's a lot of a lot. Be cool if you could make some smaller hanging lights for over the center counter over the area with stools for eating.
Gorgeous design, Bob! It reminds me of a Philippines bubo, which means 'fish trap'. And lots of similar designs throughout the Pacific Islands. Love the idea of it holding in light, but the light still finds a way to escape. Awesome work!
Great work Bob & that light fixture is over the top amazing! Happy New Year to you & your family! Enjoy, stay safe & be well! 👍👍💥💥
Look at you Bob making a project with form and function! What an awesome light! I think it is the perfect touch to finish off your dining area.
Love the LEGO map early in the video. I'm currently building mine so we can put all the places we've been to in Italy! The lamp looks awesome. It's very modern and simple, but looks great. Happy new year to you and your family!
I think one of the best things about it is that it has a dynamic design - it always looks different from different angles, so never stops looking pretty and cool - there's always variety.
I'm gonna adopt that approach in my feature pieces from now on, thank you!
Holy smacks, that turned out incredible Bob! Super clean build and very professional look to the final product 👌🏼 👏🏼 bravo sir 👏🏼
I heard building a light so now im intrigued
12:51 definitely cool but for my specific need I'll just go find an old Pool Table lamp 😅
Really like the design and it came out very nice! I love when I find materials for a project in my stock pile.
Hopefully you’ll sell the files for the light! I really love it and it fits perfectly with our house aesthetics.
Love the design, execution and even if some of your tools are not affordable to all (like myself), there are still other ways to achieve the same result. It'll just take longer. So I'll keep on watching too! Happy new year in advance to you and your family! 🎉
Turned out beautifully! You might be also to use washi to diffuse the light more if needed. When you said "...drill some holes" my brain filled in 'and pound some pegs', no idea why. Have a lovely new year.
That design is gorgeous! So mesmerizing as you walk around catching that glimpse through the slats.
Gorgeous fixture! Nice work, bravo!!
I love the way that turned out! Glad you finished it.
It is beautiful - one of a kind - perfect for this space. Nice work!!!
Very artistic! And I like how you listed what you wanted the light to accomplish-not just the obvious part.
You've mentioned the idea on the podcast, but I really love seeing you layout your needs / parameters and working from there
Gorgeous light, It really fills out the space nicely
What a beautiful light! Good job.
Thanks for the video, I've been considering doing something similar at home, so it was interesting to see your process and how it came out 👍
Fantastic build Bob! 🎉🎉🎉happy new year and many memories around the table.
nice project from you Bob, keep up good work, with 3D printing or without it, just enjoying project, i was waiting from you to add a feature that takes the light up during day light (to open the view from windows) and take it back to the right height when it is dark (and waiting just to turn it On/Off), nice job
You nailed this design! What an awesome effect.
Love it! Super cool Bob! I would love to have seen a really cool tiny pattern laser engraved on each of the slats, just really faint, to give it that extra bit of detail
That is awesome!!!!! Looks incredible.
Nice work! Great light that fits your needs an space. Maybe add two lights facing up to flood the ceiling for better overall light.
Very clever design and it looks amazing! I like the way it turned out
yes bob! make more lights! we lost a pear tree due to the heavy snow this winter, sad as it might be, my first thought was to make a floor lamp from it. may act as some inspo to you over the pond
We have pretty much removed all existing lights, light fixture and anything hanging and replaced almost all of the lights to have around 50 or so 6 inch recessed thin profile led light pucks in all rooms. The upstairs and 2 additions were super easy as you can go up in to the attic. The main kitchen and the lower level living quarters you can not do that. In the 2nd kitchen the room is long and the floor joist go in the correct direction which allowed for 5 lights and 4 lights. The kitchen and living quarters we have to do something else. The kitchen we area going to do 2 drop down boxes so that there are 2 runs with 10 lights in each one. The living quarters we are still undecided. The pantry has a part of an attic above it and the joist are going the right way to make runs of lights.
Adding these lights has greatly improved lighting in these areas. Our upstairs office has 2 runs of 3 lights each and one set is at the rear counter and the 2nd light is in the middle forward to light up the room. The 2 big screen tvs have 4 foot light bars behind them (20 watts each) connected to smart home plugs and since the they are on swing out swivels they light up the entire desk below and do not mess with glare if one is sitting in the 2 recliners. The rear thin profiled puck led recessed what ever you want to call them are set to the lower 2400k and on a dimmer with some temporary shields on them. I still need to make something a bit better and have some ideas on how to do it. I just need to find someone who can 3d print and have them make some shields. This is to stop the glare.
To wire these all up was super simple. I just drilled all the holes out and daisy chained the lights and connected it to the old light wires. For those I pulled them up and out of the boxes if there were any and patched the holes back up. The new lights are super nice.
I have seen some rgb led ones, some that have night lights halos on them and several others including directional ones and a number of sizes. While not like this light in the video something like this will improve what crappy lights exist in homes. I visited someone who just bought a freshly remolded home that just had chandlers in every room, while they look pretty the lighting is super poor.
I made a lightfrom pvc pipe for my kitchen. Busy with one for my loinge but ran out of black spray paintand as tomorrow is Sunday and new years evet. I have to wait till Tuesday to get more to finish and then install. Still thinking through what i want to do in the dining room.
Awesome job! This turned out so amazing looking- would love to have something like this in our home.
That light came out great. I think what your corner test might not have shown is the motion you see from the slats on the opposite side as you look through the full completed shade.
Looks great Bob. Awesome light.
That lamp is really creative! I love it.
In the past week Shaun Boyd posted a YT video on his “Shaun Boyd Made This” channel that could have fit your prototype requirements. Did you ever glue all the ribs together? If not, you could vary your pattern by inverting every other rib to create a similar, yet different shade pattern. What was the white material that you rolled out on the plywood before laser cutting?
Bob, thanks for another year of great video content. Wishing you a safe holiday weekend and a blessed new year filled with peace, prosperity, happiness and good health. Stay safe out there, surrounded by the warmth of family and friends. Cheers.
Very nice light fitting Bob! I might take inspiration from this for a new light we need.
Absolute awesome project ! Amazing design ❤
The light is fantastic! Congratulations.
That’s an amazing looking light, well done
This is incredible! Really beautiful work
Thanks Bob, I really enjoy your content. Hope all is well with you an yours! Lamp looks great!
Very cool the light turned out amazing great job
Like many others are commenting, this is one of my favorite build results. It looks great! You make me wish I had a laser cutter. That thing is so cool! (I finally got a good 3d printer.)
That is stunning! Love it.
Super cool! I was nervous about the charred edges being visible on all the slats but it turned out to be a really neat effect. Do you have any plans to add a CNC to your shop in the future? That would have been my instinct for this project.
Incredible design and implementation! Please sell a ‘knock down’ kit of the shade. It is the perfect light we have been looking for.
Very Nice! I hope you have a great new year!
Not a fan of "rib lamps" but this one certainly stands from many others and got me a several good ideas for a similar situation I'm currently in.
Sadly I only have a 20W diode laser, so I'll be expending a few afternoons at the workshop keeping myself busy while it does its job 😅😅
Awesome shade bro. I can definitely see you selling this on your website but i also see the other side of that. You just made an awesome, one of a kind masterpiece. Do you want to share it. Any way, great content, you and your crew do great things. If people have problems or complaints about not having the tools you do they need to remember there is always a work around. You have proven that for sure.
Amazing Bob. One of my favorite from you. Thanks.
Nice job Bob! You’ve definitely got skills. 😊 Looks great.
Very nice light fixture. Well done.
There are too many cases with better help, that shows they take advantage of people who already are down. Lots of people have shared their experiences, unfortunately not great ones. I highly encourage you to look them up and their cases, and don’t work with them in the future.
As always, the video was fun to watch though!
Love it buddy, very cool! Great idea and execution.
Congrats on finally finishing your kitchen! Light fixture looks great! What did you put in the hidden drawers in the bottom of the island? Do you use them like you thought you would?
Great build! great video all around.
Looks awesome! Happy New Year
it looks fabulous and it works great with the table, just don't get another table now ;-) one bulb light being black thread and two white is weird, but luckily you can't see it once the globe went on, well done
Cool build! And I'm 100% behind the 3-D printer, they are extremely useful.
That’s an incredible-looking fixture!
I love the kitchen build videos. A ton of great information.
The final product looks amazing!
Damn, that's cool Bob!
Very well done amazing finish.
you mentioned that you wanted up lighting as well. You may want to adjust the shape of your channel covers so they have a indented channel within them to place an LED on each side of the post as an up-light as well
Amazing! Simple! Elegant! I love it!
You, sir, just turned your dining room table from something plain and ordinary to a high-end dining establishment. Normally I don't like chandeliers or any other form of hanging lights; however, this looks spectacular, Bob. I would even reconsider my stance on hanging lights as a result of your video. Well done!
This. Light. Is. Incredible!!!!
Nice project. Can you try with a filament bulb (LED, they make fancy ones nowadays) instead of having a diffusion ball? I wonder how it would look like.
I finally got a 3d printer, ( a very basic one) and it’s been a challenge to say the least but the benefits do having this tool and keep ring how to use it has also been fun and extremely helpful. If your hesitant on getting one or learning about them don’t be, just jump into it!
When you said you wanted the light to shine from above to reflect off the ceiling, I imagined a separate light source to do just that. Are the three globes enough to produce that secondary light reflection like you wanted?
That is an awesome project and lamp!!!!
Well done, it is beautiful !
Duuude! Great job! That is an awesome light!
Very elegant! I love the design!
Fantastic idea 👌👌. Congrats 👍👍
that's cool! good job Bob!
Looks great!
The house I grew up in had a single bulb floor lamp with a remarkably similar design from the 70s. It's a little weird seeing it recreated in jumbo here, but still pretty cool!
Shaun Boyd actually posted a video on a similar light fitting he made. That looked great as well!
This is so rad, Bob!!!
Amazing!! I need on in my house 🤩
This is the best thing you have ever made! Great stuff Bob.
Bravo sir!
Thats an impressive project! Just a technical question: you said at the beginning you twisted AND tilted the ribs: have you really made so in the actual lamp shade or have you only twisted them?
Doesn't the joint between the ring and the ribs require a cut that is not perpendicular to the surface to achieve a stable structure? I assume the laser cutter can't do that; how did you manage that?
Happy new year!
Love the design of this Bob! 🙌
Outstanding design and construction of that light fixture. Did you glue it together during final assembly and what kind of finish will you use on it?
Awesome light. I would totally buy that
