To make the lamp I used a jointer, planer, table saw, miter saw and router, as well as a drill press and chisel for the base. Still, I wanted to get my thoughts onto paper — something I consider a mandatory part of the creative process. For added atmosphere, pick up a bright green compact fluorescent bulb to bring Yoda’s Jedi weapon to life – it looks great in any home or office. Like Luke Skywalker, you have to put it together yourself, but we include all the parts, and we promise it's simple - Jedi mastery not required. Furthermore, while the lamp we saw was at a fixed angle, I had the idea of being able to thread the lamp through the base and use the friction between the two to adjust and hold the angle of the lamp.

Finally, I finished the lamp by first sanding it by hand and then applying a mixture of 50% ethanol and 50% sealer.Definitely went beyond my expectations it's such an awesome saber great sound affects and the lights and color changing is amazing and bright. First I traced a vertical line with the help of the measure level at 45 cms of the floor, then I drawed a horizontal line, making a cross. The Yoda Lightsaber Lamp is a 1:1 scale replica of Yoda’s lightsaber hilt with a laser-cut shade depicting the Jedi Knights emblem on 3 sides.

If you think batteries may have been swallowed or placed inside and body part, seek immediate medical attention. Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places.Part of the problem was that the wireframe separated the base from the spine and these were not accompanied by my sketches, which were just partial views of the lamp. An air of the Force resonates within the room when you have this Anakin Skywalker Lightsaber Table Lamp. I drilled a hole in the bottom of each piston where the cable goes to the connections and through the power source. The bottom of the hilt its a piece of scrap where the first piston fits like a glove , so tight, then comes the second piston this is attached with two pieces of aluminium joined with bolts and nuts in both sides.

The Philips Hue lightstrip, in addition to providing light, could also allow me to control the lamp from my phone, change the color of the light and integrate it with my route. The 25cm (10") tall light is shaped like Darth Vader's lightsaber, and, with a backplate inspired by the menacing Death Star, you. Just shy of 2 feet tall, it adds a touch of fandom to a desk in an office or a library, on a nightstand or in a dorm room. The sketching process allows you to more easily reflect on your ideas, consider the details, as well as other possibilities.I was actually thinking about challenges for 2015 — it’s a thing of mine — and thought making a lamp would be a good challenge considering most of the things I made were digital and I am not a very hands-on practical person. However, one of the goals of doing a project, such as designing and building a lamp is to learn new tools and techniques.
