Step Two: Cutting
Acrylic sheet has dimensions 450 * 600 * 2 mm. Cuts out parts of the lamp.
Step Three: Parts Processing
In order for the light to scatter, it erases the outer ends on the edges with sandpaper.
The base plane strips on both sides.
Step Four: Build
Starts to build. The joints are fixed with polyacrylic adhesive.
Step Five: Electrical
Collects the electrical part of the lamp. Coats the outside of the can with paint. After drying, at the bottom, makes a hole for the wire.
Connects the wire to the cartridge. The cartridge sticks to the bottom of the can using double-sided tape.
Sets the plug and switch. Screws in a light bulb.
Now it remains to install an acrylic design from above and the lamp is ready.
