I needed a lamp and the amount of brain power and labour I was willing to devote was about five minutes.
Choosing items close at hand and making it up as I went along, Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the five minute lamp.

My starting point was this old cable , which is missing the threaded collar and means of attachment.
I looked for a base; this is a left over from a pallet that I dismantled.
Oh yes, the Red Stripe that I had last night will make a lovely shade.
Two screws should do the job.
The tools were a pair of tin snips ( scissors would do ) and a screwdriver.

A thing of beauty; don't know how it didn't win the Turner Prize. Now if you start drinking Red Bull instead of beer you can whittle it down to 4.5 seconds. Seriously, though, nice job and really useful!
