Very nice Sergy. Where are the light bulbs in the piston lamp? Can you show picture of the top of piston? Thanks, Herb

Hi, Herb.
Yes I can, but later.
There are LEDs instead of lamps.

How do you make the piston rod stay in the vertical (up) position? glue or weld it?

Hi!
Neither glue, nor weld :D

This pipe is holding the whole construction without welding. I didn't use anything you have mentioned above.

Nice to see you keeping busy, Sergey. Great ideas for lamps; the "Sanden" has kind of a "steam punk " design look about it. At least you don't have to drive across town to get to your garage like Vieux. Hope you had a Merry Christmas and I wish you and yours the best of a Happy New Year! I certainly don't miss the kind of weather you have this time of year.

Love the lamps and table! Very creative. I don't think the wife would let me have anything like that in the house though...

She wouldn't, really?

Just kidding. Back in the days before mancaves, a friend had a "wall mural" in his living room consisting of the top of a 365HP 327 Corvette engine spread out; heads, valve covers manifold, distributor, exhaust manifolds. She said "gotta go", and she did.

I do have 1 Snap-On mirror in our bedroom, just because my wife likes it. I had it in my bedroom when we were dating, so....

Hi guys.
Yesterday I have made a new lamp, but an add-on.
I put a bush in the centre of a ring. There are slots for placing 2 photos. The depth of the slot is 0,3 mm. Also the ring can rotate.

I made cutters for this part:

This construction is a frame for 2 photos, but there is one more thing. Using these 2 photos you can play the game "heads or tails". For example,
"Who is going to the supermarket?"
"Who is carring the trash out?"
"Who is watching TV?"
Stop arguing about it, just have your luck!

Wow, when I started reading this thread, I didnt expect to find amazing furniture pieces! I noticed throughout you had some good fabricating skills, very cool to see you decided to make some unique pieces. Very nice work. I hope you sold that engine table for at least your salary! Thats what it would go for over here.

Keep the updates coming, whether it be furniture or garage related.

Thanks! It's not quite easy to promote it here in Russia. People like it, but not all of them are willing to buy.
