Re: Stained glass lamp shade

Thanks OGF.

No, not a Tiffany lamp, or even a poor copy. His usually featured dragonflies, or so I believe.

The first one I did was a copy of a Tiffany lamp shade, but of course not up to his standards.

The second one and this latest one are in my own 'JBR style'(!), which is simply four flowers separated by leaves. What's good about it is that you don't have to shape every piece of glass to fit all the others leaving no gaps! Obviously, they have to connect for the most part or the thing would fall apart.

My first 'JBR lamp' is hanging from the ceiling next door; my second 'JBR lamp' is, as shown, a standard lamp.

Perhaps one day, copies of 'JBR lamps' will be commonplace and on sale country-wide. Like hell!

Ah, so that's what you have been doing with your Antex 100W and 60:40 solder.

It is absolutely splendid, especially the coloured light and shade that it throws onto the wall. Putting it in a corner has doubled the effects.

Thanks Fruitcake.
The only reason we get that projected image on the wall is because I'm using a halogen lamp which provides a point source of light. I earlier tried a fluorescent lamp which is quite a large source of light and, of course, didn't have the effect that Marge seems to like so much.
We have to keep our wives happy!

Re: Stained glass lamp shade

Wives? Plural? Does Marge know you have more than one?
