Step 4The Tower
Now is the time to add the top of the lamp.
For this you need these lengths of copper pipe
2 - 3 1/2"
1 - 4"
Before you do any sweating you need to make the end caps that hold the lamp.
Get your two copper end caps.
Center punch them with a nail and hammer.
get your bolt, washer, nut assembly and match the bolt to a bit that would drill the appropriate hole.
Drill the hole with the help of a machinist vise. Watchout for breakback.
Drill a hole in the hose clamp near the mechanism of the clamp
Assemble the end pieces.
Drill a hole in the three way fitting like you did in the center three way for the base.
Sweat the fittings and pipes together.
This is your last Sweating. You can put the Torch, Solder, and Flux away.
Now you need to add the Cadillac Hood Ornament. I used wire to attach it to the lamp. You can use whatever you want.
