Introduction: Concrete Lamp (5)
Hi! This time a little sweet concrete lamp instructable.
Step 1:
First of all find a good quality small food storage box. Use a soldering iron to make a approx. 30mm hole on the top and a 14mm hole on the side for the cord. (I use Lego bricks to find the center.)
Step 2:
Connect lamp cord (with plug and switch pre-installed) to an E27 socket. Use a chair protective pad to protect cord from bending.
Step 3:
Apply super glue or rubber adhesive before assembling socket
Step 4:
Insulate holes with rubber adhesive and secure socket on the mold with a bulb and a socket collar.
Step 5:
FIll it with concrete and give it 24h to dry.
Step 6:
Cut with a soldering iron and remove mold.
Step 7:
Water sand the bottom part with 100 or 150 grit sandpaper. You can also fine sand the body if you like with 600 grit sandpaper.
Step 8:
Attach protective rubber pads.
Step 9:
Ready. Install a bulb you like.
