To solve the problem of replacing the lamp (and it will burn out, trust me), instead of gluing the top piece on to the posts, drill a couple of holes and screw it down with some brass screws. This would also add a nice accent. To prolong lamp life, you can also use a dimmer. Lutron makes one that you plug your lamp cord into and then plug the dimmer into the receptacle. The other end has a slider switch and if you run it all the way up and then back it down a tad, you're not delivering full voltage to the lamp and it will last a long, long time. You can also move the slider end about 6ft away from the lamp which is convenient. One model is TT-300NLH-WH that has a locator light. I believe they also make models for compact fluorescent lamps. This also makes for a very nice accent light when you're watching TV or in the bedroom. I have a few of them and I haven't replaced the lamps/bulbs in about 7 years. Dimmer pays for itself. They're between $10-15. Remember, manufacturers don't want lamps/bulbs to last forever. They want you to keep buying them.
Great design! I also have an idea to solve the bulb replacement problem: instead of gluing the vertical supports into the dado in the base block, how about adding some magnets? One in the vertical support, another in the corresponding location within the dado. That way you have some good stability, but when you need to change the bulb you just pull the whole upper structure off the base and you're good to go. I like that idea a lot; think I'll definitely try it out. Thanks again for the design- you're quite talented.
I was thinking the same thing. Why would you glue the top piece when it clearly needs to come off to install a new bulb in the future. Other than that, I like the design
would be cool if you could design that very top piece so that it slid into grooves on the 2 supporting arms to lock it in place. That way you could just pull the top piece up and out of the way while still holding the 2 support arms together. Looks really cool though, I love the design
Using a miter and a fence at the same time and not using a riving knife can all lead to a dangerous kick back. You should use a stop block on the miter instead or clamp a stop block to the fence that ends before the stock comes in contact with the blade.
Yea. Even if he thinks he's holding it down, that's not gonna stop a blade spinning 3000+ RPMs from grabbing it and him and taking them both for a joy ride.
Thank you! And that is good question. I just hope the lightbulb is not go bad. If yes I think if I'm carful I can remove the top piece which is just glued on.
@@jakrobuilds just a suggestion for things like this in the future, you can fix the top piece on by drilling holes in the main 2 rods and put 2 dowels in the top piece that are loose enough to slide in and out.
Wow, this DIY desk lamp tutorial is fantastic! I love how clear and detailed the instructions are, making it easy to follow along. The design ideas you shared are so inspiring-can't wait to customize my own lamp! Thanks for the great content!
Another yes and no ;-) Regular tools for the US market maybe. But in Europe you won't really find any of those dado stack blades for the table saw. So they're not THAT regular. Of course you can work around that without any problems. Cheers!
What happens when someone inevitably lifts the lamp from that top piece being held in by rapidfuse? Yes, it's twice the strength of super glue but... that's not a lot at all. Other than that... yeah, impressive lamp. 👌
This is called a dado stack. These can make dados in one pass by combining different blades for different widths. On 2:35 he measures he needs dados 1/2 inch wide. Then on 2:37 he picks out the combination of blades that give a 1/2 inch width. When you don't have one of these things (in Europe dado stacks are illegal for example) you can just make multiple passes with a table saw sled.
Looks like a fire hazard imo, leds would be my option, and in no way able to change the bulb. Perhaps line the holes with something heat resistant. Overall, nice design
This is so cool! Just curious, what’s that crimping method with the blue tubing you used to join the wires together? I’ve never seen that before. Would you be willing to share a parts list as well? I’m planning on making my own lamp in the near future but would love some guidance on the electrical side of things so I don’t purchase the wrong stuff. Thanks!
I find them on amazon, they are really good, automatic wire striper and it's not so expensive. And for wire connection I used self wire connection, no solder need. It's also very cheap.
Security: You are using the transverse and longitudinal fences on the table saw at the same time. You should never do that. And on your table saw I miss the splitting wedge.😥😥
I'll never understand why the use of CA glue for wood seems to common for "you guys". In my opinion it's definitely not the best method, as CA glue is known to come along with allergy hazards (I actually feel the fumes in my eyes of it each time I use it and also smell it) and in humid conditions it will most likely not provide a lasting connection. I'd choose simple water proof wood glue over CA glue for joining wooden parts any time.

looks amazing, but how the hell do you change the lightbulb if it burns out ?
Don't a top on?
Or attach the top with tiny magnets instead of being glued on
Hehe very true 😂
Yeah, I loved the lamp, but first thought was how to change the light bulb, you shouldn’t have to throw it away afterwards
Efforts are made to look cool. However, it is useless practically. No option to replace the bulb.
I was thinking the same thing. Why would you glue the top piece when it clearly needs to come off to install a new bulb in the future. Other than that, I like the design
Amazing work,, beautiful desk lamp,,I like it!!👍👌thanks for sharing
Hermoso diseño. ¿Como haces para cambiar la lampara cuando se quema?
Great job and project thx for sharing enjoyed it Keep building Cheers
Creative Design!
Very cool definitely going to try this out. Thanks for sharing
Nice lamp. Suggestion: use a more stylish cable for the lamp.
would be cool if you could design that very top piece so that it slid into grooves on the 2 supporting arms to lock it in place. That way you could just pull the top piece up and out of the way while still holding the 2 support arms together. Looks really cool though, I love the design
Amazing design. Cut to perfection. Great finishing.
Nice design - yes. Cut to perfection ...... no ;-) But still nice that you showed us the making of the lamp.

Very good interesting video
Best lamp ever bro i have never seen like this ,keep it bro 👍
💕from🇮🇳
Beautiful !!
Mantap bosku Slam dri form Indonesian 🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨 channel.. 🙏🙏🙏
Very very nice. My only question is how are you planning on changing the bulb in the future?

That was my question too. How to change the bulb.
Very well efforts
А когда перегорит лампочка - просто изготовить новый светильник?))
Все красиво, но когда перегорит лампа, как менять будешь? Ведь ты все заклеил!
How thick are the dado cuts you made on the sticks? And how big is the hole you cut in each block and the base? Great video!!
good job bro ......
can someone tell me what electrical equipment he picked up at the hardware store to make the lamp?
Great video!
Çok güzel olmuş 🎉
Does the bulb get hot?
Absolutely amazing! Beautiful and useful! 👏
So lite bulb stuck in there ?? What happens when it burns out ?
JOLIE ? MAIS ON FAIT COMMENT POUR CHANGER L'AMPOULE ?
How the heck do you change the light bulb in the future when it burns out?
nice prototype
Really nice work.
How do you replace the bulb?
Great job 👍👍💯💯
I clicked for the lamp, stayed for the music.
haw to change led if we need
Incredible design my friend! Do you happen to have the building plans for this?
Just Wondering how you will change the bulb when needed?
Background music? It’s so calming

Maybe I missed it but what happens when you need to change the bulb?
You dont change it. You just make a new lamp
Great design! And I love that you used regular tools!

@@j.h.4570 did not know that. I just stack 7-1/4" blade together.
@@dgoins6 I think dado blades and pocket holes are two things more common in the USA. Even though pocket holes seem to be "on the rise" here recently.
Neat lamp!
what are the equipment that I need to do this Job
Beauty Lamp - bulb change fail.... but still a nice lamp, for about 4000 hours.
Как лампочку менять ?
E quando devi sostituire la lampada ?
Well done 👍
Greetings, could you tell me what wood you use, and congratulations, very beautiful lamp
Beautiful work! And great video
Can u please drop the sizes of the pieces of wood
And how do you remove the light bulb to change it? ;)
This is America. You throw it away...
Если время девать некуда, то можно и так - от скуки помогает.
Can you put a link on where you got the light bulb holder
*Cool lamp, so cozy and homely. And it is not very difficult to make. I also make lamps and many other things. I wish you interesting projects! ;-)*
What happens when someone inevitably lifts the lamp from that top piece being held in by rapidfuse? Yes, it's twice the strength of super glue but... that's not a lot at all. Other than that... yeah, impressive lamp. 👌
I noticed you added a second blade (2:50) and I was just wondering what does that blade do?
This is called a dado stack. These can make dados in one pass by combining different blades for different widths. On 2:35 he measures he needs dados 1/2 inch wide. Then on 2:37 he picks out the combination of blades that give a 1/2 inch width. When you don't have one of these things (in Europe dado stacks are illegal for example) you can just make multiple passes with a table saw sled.
I noticed that you only used a side blade and a chipper. Normally both side blades and the chipper would be used to ensure a cleaner cut.
Y cuando el bombillo se queme?
Comment on change la lampe ?
Nice
И как лампу менять? 🤔
Looks like a fire hazard imo, leds would be my option, and in no way able to change the bulb. Perhaps line the holes with something heat resistant.
Overall, nice design
Quel sont les dimensions du socle svp
someone has a clue how this lightbulb is called ? cant find it ;o) many thanks
Hey Markus, the lightbulb is Philips
T10 4.5Watt - 40W. (300 lumens)
Almost very Home Depots has it.
Enjoy
@@jakrobuilds Hey ! Many thanks for your answer ! And btw ... great work ;o)
Thank you!
hoe ga je die lamp ooit vervangen ????? je lijmt het bovenste
А как заменить лампу?

could you please post dimensions?
8.15.....how do you take out the light bulb ????🤣🤣🤣
Top
Which the name of back music?
Brabo é quando queimar a 💡!😅
❤❤❤
что делать если лампа сгорит ?
👍👍👍👍👍
If you epoxy the top at the end, you won't be able to take the bulb out
best
А лампочку как меня?
Security: You are using the transverse and longitudinal fences on the table saw at the same time. You should never do that. And on your table saw I miss the splitting wedge.😥😥
I have done very similar with woodglut designs.
Hebat
One time use only😂
The soud of tools are music. Backing track is annoying.

Using the miter gauge and the fence together at the same time will result in a bad day. That’s super dangerous.
DIY if you have a workshop and can afford 40k in tools
Show...
DIY Desk Lamp : 1 - buy a fully kitted out wood shop ($54,000) 2 - learn how to use the tools 5/10+yrs 3 - make lamp.
You don’t use a mitre gauge in conjunction with a table saw fence. Ur ASKING to have an incident. Use a cross cut sled!!! 🤦🏼♂️
I heard very good opinions about the Woodglut plans.
A jak póżniej wymienić żarówkę? haha
