While digging through my stash of Cherry looking for a suitable piece to finish my flag case, I saw some nice figured Cherry and a chunk of Bubinga that I thought would make a couple of nice table lamps similar to ones I made in 2004.
This is one of the ones I made back then and the Cherry I found today is even prettier than this one. I think the Bubinga will be really nice as I can see some nice grain even though it's rough sawn yet.
When I made these lamps back in 2004 I used lamp kits I purchased from one of the BORGS. I think it was Menards. While they were Leviton units I wasn't at all happy with them.
Does anyone have any suggestions for lamp kits? Making a couple more lamps will be next on the agenda after I finish the flag cases.
Thanks for any suggestions.
