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.
