re: Pallet wood and acrylic table lamp

Anyway, the base finishing came out nice. I plan to wax it also.

I messed around for a few days trying to make a top section, but in the end I decided that it looks better without anything on top.

I may throw this up on Etsy and see if there’s any interest. Failing that, I guess it will sit on my desk until I decide to turn the lens into a pendant light fixture. We’ll see.

One last thing – this project took about 5 times longer than I anticipated. It was more complex than I originally envisioned. I lost track of the number of hours I put into it but I’m guessing nearly 40 including the plywood prototype. It was fun, but my wife kept beachin’ about not getting any “real” work done in the house. LOL
