    Love the look of the light coming through the thin wood... Pretty cool.

    Really a great looking lamp especially with the light turned on & wood grain showing through! Man, I thought I had a lot of wood working tools...

    Awesome use of the grooves for the panels. That technique would look great as a large mirror frame. A great video and clever work.

      Thanks Gail! That would be a good application!

    Cool lamp. Love the effect the thin slabs of wood give. Might have to build one myself. Thanks for the inspiration.

    Impressive work! I would not have expected those strips to be so translucent. Thanks for sharing.

    This is great.
    We toss so much stuff to the curb, everything has a use or second life.
    One mans trash is everyone's treasure it just takes a craftsman to get it there.
    This man's a craftsman. ***** you get 5 stars for this. I'd give 6 but I'm out of ink.

    Nice job! One could combine this lamp building method with Mike Fulton's wooden playing cards to make a cool game room lamp.
    In this video, the wood panels look a bit like leaded glass when the room is dark.

    • @ConstructIcon

    How thin did you rip the block and what was the finished thickness after the sanding? Idd like to do something like this with LED lighting at my desk. Thanks!

    • @ConstructIcon
      @ConstructIcon  8 років тому

      +Mike Sallow i would just cut it as thin as possible and hold it up to a light source.

  • @92RADLO
    @92RADLO 8 років тому

    Can someone explain why he uses the jointer on the edges and ultimately ends up squaring off the edges on the table saw anyways? Thanks

    • @ConstructIcon
      @ConstructIcon  8 років тому

      I squared one edge on the jointer so that I could run it against my table saw fence to then create & cut another square edge. Thanks for the inquiry.

    • @92RADLO
      @92RADLO 8 років тому

      +Construct Icon Thanks for the reply, that makes perfect sense. Great lamp as well.

  • @hans-emilmathisen826
    @hans-emilmathisen826 8 років тому +1

    hi, do you have som drawings/plans for this lamp? like how long is the small sheets and stuff like that?

    • @ConstructIcon
      @ConstructIcon  8 років тому +1

      Unfortunately not, but because everything is rectangular it should be relatively easy to measure & fit things to your own size. As far as the transparent pieces, just cut them as thin possible & hold it up to a light source. If you see light coming through, then you're on the right track. Hope this helps & thanks for watching!

    • @hans-emilmathisen826
      @hans-emilmathisen826 7 років тому

  • @bobordewald1367
    @bobordewald1367 9 років тому +1

    Nice, How thick where the panes in your lampshade?

    • @ConstructIcon
      @ConstructIcon  9 років тому

      Thank you. I cut them as thin as possible on the bandsaw. After that I held it to the light to see what it would look like, then proceeded to cut the rest that thickness.

      Katherine Allen Thank you! I remember about 12 years ago when all I had was a Dremmel that I owned. I used it to make several projects & after awhile I wanted to make bigger/better things. Little by little my interest & tool selection started to grow (and not have to use someone else's tools). If you are interested in making things I hope the same for you. Many great deals & good people out there to help you started. Best wishes!!

    Making something out of nothing at all! Extremely clever resourceful person. I'm impressed. Ps take no notice of the Trolls. By nature they're are glib, shallow jealous envious people whose only aim in life is to reduce everything they see down to their level, because they instinctively know they are non achievers and don't want anyone else to achieve because it shames them!
