--SOLD-- #42 was built by special request for a customer as a Christmas gift so it was never listed as available. They let the recipient open it early so now it's safe to show everyone without ruining the surprise. I forgot to stage it for decent photos before shipping it so these are all I have.

#41 This one is so big it can't help but make a statement. 26ish inches tall with a 12 inch base, it's got to weigh 50lbs. The shade is the glass portion of an old warehouse fixture and I really like how it diffuses the light. I attached the original tag, but if you don't want to look at it, the shade can be rotated so it's at the back.
-$125--SOLD--

Christmas is coming!
Need an odd gift for an odd person?
I've got five lamps in stock and more on the way. Got grandpa's old, unused tools in the shed or a hubcap from Dad's favorite wrecked car? Custom builds are available so let's talk.
These things take time so don't wait.
Also, do me a favor and share this page. I need more followers.

-SOLD-
#37 Just finished this one.
Built on special request.
I kind of like the top of the shade especially.

Not a current lamp (I haven't been building lately) I sold this one years ago. I think I've made 5 of these over the years. It's probably the only design I've duplicated.

Father's Day is coming right up!
Maybe Dad needs a strange lamp.
I have several in stock.
Or if you have your own special piece lying around and want it lamped, send me a message. I'll lamp most anything.

--SOLD-- #36. Double table lamp with copper accents. $125 --SOLD--

--SOLD-- #37 (I've started numbering them) kinda like a space mushroom. I'm thinking with a low wattage bulb it might make a good bedside lamp for a kids room. Or whatever.
Anyway, it's available. $100.--SOLD--

--SOLD--decided to add a little plaque to this one.
I like to think that all of my lamps have a story through their old, recycled components but in this case I actually know what the story is. I think it makes the lamp more interesting to know that this isn't just a random compilation of fittings cobbled together to make a lamp, but it had a life before.

--SOLD-- This one has kind of a Mad Max vibe.

One more switch example.

I try to make the act of turning the light on and off interesting. I promised myself I would never use cord switches and I almost never use switches on the socket. How you interact with the lamp is part of the experience. These are a few of the highlights...

Some lamps are more dynamic than others.

Just an overview of some of my work.
Please forgive the poor photography.
When I originally took these pictures I never foresaw starting a page like this.
