Damn it man,that string trick for running the wire was nothing short of awesome,thanks!

Looking good!

Order process... Drilling the 4 holes first and installing some allthread may have helped with the rotation. This project was a great example of... Go out and build something cool! Thumbs up

Great build. Thanks for posting.

Awesome, love it.

I like the lap great job. Like the look of the metal shade.

LOL looks like a definite learning experience. Mixing turning wood with metal.

That is beautiful and awesome.

Nice project. Thanks

thanks for sharing something cool

nice job!

been building one off lamps for a long time...one of my first was a fire extinguisher ( brass ). one trick I always do is solder the lamp cord leads. NIce lamp !

Nice project.

Great video

very cool.

Awesome maker vid!

Great trick with the vacuume

Nice job. Good range of skills shown there. Thanks.

really nice work.. , the instant rust makes it look amazing.

It's actually quite cool.

Nice lamp, Dale good fabricobbeling!

Nice work Dale!

Nice job man. Congratulations.

Nicely executed project. I have had good luck cutting rings, discs, and washers with hole saws. I stack the plates, clamp them together and then drill through holes in all four corners. Then I screw the plates to a suitable piece of plywood or 2x lumber. At the drill press or mill I secure the wood to the table and saw away. With the workpiece secured to the table you do not need a pilot hole. When cutting metal hole saws like slow spindle speed and lots of cutting oil. There will be some sharp edges on the rings when they are unstacked so be carefull.

Interesting video, nice change from the usual machine shop stuff.

Cool lamp. Great video. : )

Always a thumbs up! I love your projects and the way you attack them.

Nicey done Dale!

That sir, is a very cool lamp

Good to see you again A F Pienaar Johannesburg

How fun, Dale. Always enjoy seeing your "mistakes". Keeps me centered when I do something dumb. Thanks, guy. Glad to see you up and running again. Bill

Don't apologize to the trolls who complain about putting your hands in "acid." Lemonade is an acid, cola is an acid, and this is basically vinegar. Hysteria over the name of something, does not make it a hazard.

Nice project and process on the rusting. Another idea on the gage might be an old ammeter and wired inline.

Hi Dale, That light lives up to the name of your channel. Thanks for sharing. Steve

Absolutely, Oil can be very messy for what it does. Sharpen your tools regularly.

new name huh?! right on! I enjoyed this! thanks Dale!

Genial!

Nice work Dale, very cool bending that flat stock the hard way...

very nice, I REALLY appreciate all the mistakes, very useful. Otherwise, I'm disoriented by your new look, I used to dig the blue shirt and apron "machinist engineer" look. But it's your call, your life, nowamsayin'. Thanks for the inspiration... Keep on trucking (from France) !

Sounds like you make a lot of lamps, nice job, when did you do the final weld on the piping?

I like the vacuum trick! I wonder if I could use this for running wire through long sections (15ft) of pvc tubing.

Yes, put a small piece of foam rubber on the end of the string.

I've used this trick to run wire through UG conduit in 300 foot lengths. We call it sucking a mouce though the tube, the mouse is a piece of foam as mentioned above or just a wad of paper, the string is the mouse tail :)

I love the new intro!!!! (First?)

How did you connect the light fixture base to the pipe fitting?

how did you amass all the cool stickers?

Hi, Great videos. Please do a vid on the ratio of instant rust. Another something cool from scrap is a clock. If the wife does not like, becomes a workshop clock.

That's cool but you should of wired in a little light for the gage too.

Dieselpunk is cool. like the same

How long do you have to leave the light on before the gauge gets to 5000 ?

This video did not come up on my feed. Interesting..

Good thing this was fabrication and not production machining because the shop boss would have kicked your butt for leaving the chuck key in the chuck at 12:30. I like Mr. Fenner's rule he passed along from his shipyard days, "If the chuck key is not in your hand, it had better be in it's holder." Good advice for avoiding the ER and prevents looking for the key on the other side of the shop.

Did you include a wire trap to prevent pull out?

Good question Edward. No I didn't put a wire tap on it. There are so many bends the wire has to go that it doesn't need one.

Not sure how you would have done it but it would have been cool to try to get the gage to move when you turn the light on.

That would get a "waddaya got to get for that " from the american pickers.

It would have been nice to put an old voltmeter that showed the voltage when the light went on.

What is the concentration of acetic acid to water?

Hi Dale, To help keep disks from spinning on the bolt, turn the bolt around so the nut is clamped in the chuck (instead of the bolt's head). Friction on the clamped parts will want to tighten the bolt, forcing the bolt to clamp tighter. You will notice that the center will stop turning at this time so be mindful to watch it. Easy to re-adjust on the fly. Use some washers to make sure the bolt doesn't destroy the wood buffer. Hope this helps.

You do reverse from what I did..... I started with metal fab before machining... lol Nice ideas for the creative side of metal working.... (Don't forget yor chuck key in the chuck... Caught you...!!! lol)

Why is Adam's logo upside down and reversed?

100% Steampunk!

Doesn't look like you have an earth connection on it. I would put one one because it is 100% metal and it only takes the once to kill you.
