Pair of Cherry Lamps

  Just a quick post with some of this weeks activity. A commission for a pair of Shoji Lamps made from cherry. All the wood came from the same plank so I should end up with a nice set of twins. Here are some progress shots.

Where the magic happens
All the parts that I shaped out yesterday




Radius the feet with a Millers Falls block plane.





Glue the feet to the bases.




Paper screen parts marked for cutting the lap joints.




Paper screen glue up jig keeps them in square.




Stack of assembled screens ready for some oil finish.




All oiled up, let the wood glow eh.




Bases and tops with a coat of oil applied.
Going good so far, knock on wood eh.
thanks for looking
Ken
