Project Information
I've been sitting on this project for over a year now but am very excited to post it today. I built the first lamp a few years ago after seeing a puzzle joint in popular woodworking. I thought it could be put to use on something more interesting than a puzzle. I'd also seen a project here on lumberjocks that had a similar style to this but the creator didn't share how he made the joints so this was my take. I was very excited to have Canadian Woodworking and Home Improvement Magazine agree to publish an article on this lamp and you can find the full build details on their website here and in print on magazine racks. This is my first magazine article and I can't quite believe it.
I built the lighter coloured lamp first, I think it might be alder, not sure as the wood came out of a dumpster. The second lamp, the one that was built for the magazine was made from oak.
Comments and critiques welcome.
