The Kumiko lamp is finally finished. It took the longest time to wait for the arrival of the power cable, light and light socket (e14). I like it so much that I will probably make it again for myself, haha.
I uploaded five pictures in total, but somehow they don’t load for me. Can you see them? I also cannot edit the post details.
Anyways, here they are again:
And some progress pics
My jig:
What the hell are those clamps? Did you make them yourself? I’ve never seen anything like them. I probably won’t buy or build them, but they do look cool!
Those are Hatagane, japanese bar clamps. I use them for such small things where regular clamps would be too bulky and too heavy.
They are beautiful in themselves, with a kind of delicacy of form. I’ve tracked down places to purchase them. They’re not as expensive as I imagined, so I’ve added them to my Xmas and birthday lists. :)
Thanks.
How big is this? I need something like a fruit or a cat for scale. Btw it looks very nice, love the style
I’m also very confused by the scale. Looks about 8" tall maybe?
What’s the name for that type of long lightbulb?
You can find them by looking for ‘edison’ bulbs. Any of those distinct visible coil bulbs are edison, vintage look.
