I’ve decided to move forward with a prototype in the style of one of my Grandad’s handmade lamps (see last post). In light of this I’ve done a few quick sketches of ideas and also purchased some nice wood from The Old Sawmill in Dunkeld. I’m planning on using a two different types of wood which will give a contrasting effect. So I got some American Black Walnut and some Scottish Sycamore.

The wood.
I’ll update when I have more solid plans/have started making!
