This was incredibly helping and easy to follow as I was making a lamp out of beautiful vase!! Thank you!
Thanks for posting this video. It was so easy to follow. I had no idea that putting a lamp together could be so easily done! This video saved me a lot of time, money and hassle. Thank you.
Thanks so much. I have some beautiful old balusters that I wanted to use to make lamps out of...and your video was the best and most easy to follow. Thank you!!
Great video and love that he donates money to firefighters fund!
Thanks for the basic wiring tip about the ribbed side goes to the silver connection. Not intuitively obvious to the casual observer.
I opened this and realized it wasnt quite what i was looking for, but i watched the whole thing anyway. Youre a good speaker/teacher, made me keep watching hehe :P
Thank you! I wanted to replace the lamp on my mom's 45-yr old ceramic Christmas tree so I bought a lamp kit. It did not come with directions.... And I've never wired anything before. Your video helped me figure that out - Now the lamp works again!
A zoom in on the details as you are doing project would be very helpful
Nice job.
good work
Thank you!!!
What size hole do you need to drill to in sert the yoke.
Two tips: don't use channel locks on stuff you don't want to mar, also if you tin the stranded leads they will fasten down better. The lamps look great!
What size hole did you drill through the log?
I use an 1/4" drill bit.
Where do you buy your lamp parts
Where do you order those lamp parts?
no underwriters knot?
Thank you. I made what used to be a decorative accessory into a functional piece. For real beginners like me, it would have been helpful if you had held up each piece as you named and used it.
How did you get the hole through the log?
Mike Pendulum I wondered the same thing, guess it’s a closely guarded business secret.
I turn lamps on a lathe, and let me tell you - it's not so much of a secret, as no one really knows the best way in order to share it. You want a long 5/16" bit. On the lathe, I bore in from the tail stock end using a hollow cup center which allows an 18" long 5/16" bit to pass through. I go in slightly over half way from each end and meet in the middle. I turn at about 600-800rpm for this, advance VERY slowly, and pull out to empty the flutes after about every inch of progress.
If you are wanting to do this on a log, like this guy, you will likely do it by hand. It will never be perfect. The long drill bits want to bend and the wood grain will slowly lead it in some curved direction. When you hear squeaking, you know the hole is curved. The fact that this is so hard to do by hand is likely why this gentleman is not using lamp pipe (that hollow threaded rod) down the entire length, but only using 4 inches of it. He probably only has 4-6 inches of straight hole. :)
But, pay attention to the same tips as above, and you can make it work with some practice. You will probably not be able to go in half way from each side and meet, this way. Just go all the way through. Also, don't push on the drill. Use a sharp (new) bit, and let it do the work. Just concentrate on keeping it straight. A small length of narrow pipe can help with this. File the walls on one end of the pipe to be sharp and hammer it a little into the end of the log. You've just made a poor man's visual drill guide.
Also, only use twist bits with no spur. The lead worm on an auger bit will travel too easily where the grain tells it.
Hope that helps!
(You could also drill a hole through a piece of wood and clamp that to the end to use as a guide, but the hole will eventually get bigger and sloppier.)
Oh, and use a candle to wax up the threads on that lamp pipe, in case it ever needs to come back out.
I'm looking how to make a lamp out of a cowboy hat and a football the Hat I want for the top goodbye at the bottom is there anyone out there that can show me how to do this it will be my first time I want to make it for my grandson for his graduation because I wore the Hat All 4 years and he signed the football so please if there is any way somebody could tell me how to do this I would appreciate it thank you

Awesome solutions for wooden project is woodprix.
Mine works too. I used woodprix plans and build it without any problems.
Woodprix is nice for that.
Splendidly to see Woodprix have new plans which helped me save some money and energy for this construction.
So I did it too :D just using Stodoys woodworking plans :)
