I have wanted to do a project with one of the replica vintage Edison bulbs that have been available in stores for a while. These bulbs can be the focus of a project instead of just lighting.
The lamp stands 14 inches tall and 11.5 inches wide. I used a bottle lamp kit from Home Depot to mount the vintage bulb. I put all the instructions for building the project in the pattern. I also show everything needed for the project. I built the lamp from a piece of clear pine that was 8' X 5.5" X.75".
The most difficult part of this project it cutting the grill of the car. It does take some care to cut. I used a scroll reverse #3 blade. Lay out the entry holes carefully to avoid getting them too close together.
It's more of an art piece than a practical lamp but it looks nice in a dark room.

Think Safety
Remember to keep the safety of yourself and others in your work shop in your thoughts at all times. Always wear eye and ear protection. Follow all the manufactures warnings that came with your power tools. If I demonstrate something on this web site that you don't feel is safe, don't do it. Your safety is your responsibility. Fingers are handy things, try to keep all of them.
