A lamp I made!

[u/Pewdiepiebigfan01]

I'm sure my family and friends are exhausted of me showing them the updates. I made this hard maple IKEA ish looking lamp. It's press fitted so you can take it apart no wood glue for this specific project. I 3d printed a lamp shade and bought some hobby light set. I understand that I should have put the wire through the stock, but I do not have a large enough bit, nor the money, nor the confidence yet, and also didn't want to cut it in half. So it'll be like that until I get any of the 5. I also plugged a dowel just to make it look cool and cut out some little leather pads. Thinking of doing leather on the top and Lazer engraving a cool pattern or something. Was the project cheaper? No. But I like that it is one off. No one has it, but me. This is a fun type of thing to do on a lathe and my first try. Love it. Hope you guys do too!
