Coil Lamps

No two pieces that I make are exactly alike, but these are pretty close. I helped pull these two coil springs off of a friends jeep and threw them under my work bench thinking I’d use them eventually. Fast forward eight months and I finally pulled them back out and thought, “I’m tired of tripping over these, time to use them.” Since I had two, I decided to make a matching set of lamps that would use up a few other elements that I had duplicates of. I added in some large roller bearings from a jeep axle, ford Model-A transmission gears, and a pair of aircraft brake rotors. The end result are a nice set of table lamps that are bit more versatile that some of my other desk lamps.
