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.
This is amazing, I’d like one too please!
The anxiety I feel when I see some people already having Christmas presents ready is immense.
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?
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.
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.
