    Very neat looking. I have an idea for lamps I wanna have a go at, but nobody can find me inline dimmers on the switch yet (though I haven't been looking too hard).

    Great job

    Thanks guys!
    Now answers: bulbs - 7 Eur/pc, so it's ~10 AUD. Hole diameter for bulb socket - 40mm, and for switch 8mm. All parts were bought in local electric hardware stole, socked for bulb 0,7 AUD, switch - 2 AUD.
