This is a photo of some of the stainless steel surgical
components
that will be used to make the two lamps.
This is a photo of Bill cutting and grinding some
components in preparation
for assembly for the first lamp.
Bill is positioning the horizontal spreaders into the lamp.
This will be One, very UNIQUE lamp.
This photo shows the basic unit completed. The next
component to add
is the piece that's laying on the table under the lamp.
This will
become the pathway for the wiring to the electrical socket.
This is a photo of the lamp
base with the center pathway for the wiring.
This is a photo of the
second lamp during the assembly process. You can see the
first lamp in the background with a temporary shade and
illuminated.
In this photo Bill is using
the Spoolgun to weld up the components.
Bill is fitting the
electrical socket and harp to the lamp. This lamp hasn't
had the top welded on yet, so this is just to give him an
idea what the finished lamp will look like
and another sneak peak at what the lamp will look like
when illuminated.
And this photo shows the two lamp prototypes.
This was as far as we got in the allotted time. We
were able to discuss all the little tricks that would
help the assembly of these lamps. Things like fixtures
that would help a one man shop position and weld the
components
