finished another lamp
« on: June 17, 2010, 02:02:38 PM »
I used elk sheds this time and also switched up and used some old rope to make it look a little rustick. The wire is ran all the way thru the center of the sheds, that took a while.

Thats pretty cool!!

One of these days you are going to come home and that box-o-horns will be gone. Your wife told 509er and I to come get them out of the way.  :chuckle:

Nice :)
I pass my shed pile every night when I put the kids to bed and think "one day I'm gonna make some lamps/chandeliers"...  Never have gotten around to it...
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I figured it would make a good weding present for 509er and his wife, they both like that kind of stuff and since he is getting married I think his shed carrier is over

Hey Antlerking, that lamp looks great.  I have a few good prospects that I would like to do the same with.  How were you able to run the wire throught the middle of the antler?  Thanks for all your pics and posts.  Jason

I use a long drill bit about 16" long and drill both ways. I used 1/4-20 bots to put them together
