Under $30 Light Table

Step 9Lets get this lamp going

Lets get this lamp going
Initially I tried using a $1 lamp from the reuse center I got the table at, but that didn't seem bright enough for my tastes so I headed back to home depot and picked up a circular bulb ($6) from the bulb section and a powercord with a lamp attachment and clamp-y guy at the end (also $6). Luckily the packaging allowed me to screw the bulb in the lamp socket on the cord at the store to make sure it fit before buying them!

I just used the little dinky clamp that came with the lamp cord to attach the bulb to my desk, but a more elaborate set up could very easily be constructed and if you have any questions feel free to ask me, and i'll help you out.
