Floor Lamp
Done a floor lamp as a birthday present.
Made out of american oak and vic ash on a steel base which was used for stability and cladded in timber
Shade parts were done using tongue and groove... One side had a long tongue with shoulders cut at the angle.. Joining side has a groove.. Bits joined and glued.. extra tongue cut and everything sanded..
Wasn't too fussed about small gaps which I've filled with sawdust and glue as everything would be stained in dark stain which would cover those joins anyway..
