Civil War era style candle lamp

Nice Project!

Saw this, too, and thought it would be enjoyable.

I bought a version just like that from a civil war reenactment in Aiken SC.I bought it to make some and never did one day soon maybe

Neat looking little project. Be quite popular around my area I am sure, lot of Civil War history buffs.

Awesome project ! Thanks for showing it in action as well : )

If you decide to make one, I highly recommend using an indexing jig so the dowels are in the same position in each of the uprights. This makes each glass pane the same size and a heckuva lot easier to install/remove.

Thanks for the compliments !!

Nice job, I gotta do it ;-)) Come in handy when the power goes out.

I like this. Do you have the plans for this that you could share or direct me to?

Rivergirl,
Sure ! I'll dig out my magazine copy later today… If it's in my shop it may be a while !
