Industrial Desk Lamp Build

Hi Folks, Welcome to Man Cave Makings with me Gus,

In this video, I’ll take you through the process of how I made my beautiful industrial desk lamp. Not having done a lamp before it took a bit of head scratching and lots of coffee but essentially by mapping it out on paper, making a template I was then able to get cracking with the metalwork.

As with all of my videos my aim is to give as much information as possible to cater to all viewers, including a step by step guide on how I did it. I hope you can take something away from the information shared in the video and use it in your own projects and workshops.
