I still have the Steel Truss bug! This Lamp is made from 6mm Mild steel (1/4 inch) using an old Stationary Motor Flywheel for a heavy base. The light fixture is store bought, though I would like to have a vintage brown cable and black light fitting, which I can always change later. There was lots of fidley bits to this job that I didn't film sorry - the video would have been too long. It looks a little bird like from some angles or Eiffel tower perhaps. For those that are in cooler climates, I really envy you at the moment, it was so hot and humid in my shed doing this job! Well, I hope you liked it, feel free to comment, thanks for watching, take care and I hope to see you next time.
