Converting the IKEA Stollet Hanging Lamp Into a Better Table Lamp

Step 6Checking Your Work

Checking Your Work
Setting the lamp into (what is now) its upright position, you may place the 3-level acrylic "shade" onto the base of the wooden box (photo 1 below).

You may try powering the lamp to ensure that all your work is... working... as intended (photo 2 below).
