my wife just looked at the lamp, as we need a floor lamp in the new bedroom.
she said, you have a lathe, why dont you make something like that?
I just chuckled at her, and said, ok, yeah, sure.

To get a tapered start / stop to the 1/4" flute, I clamped some scrap on an angle to the temporary wood bed for the router sled to ride against at each end.

Very nice Bryan! Someday I would like to try something similar.
Larry, I think you are getting closer to the spinny side everyday!
