These lamps are sold by Materious, they are made from PVC pipes. I'm still wondering how to make these holes with enough precision. A dremel and sanding paper might be too difficult, a router might be tricky. The final result looks great, I think I'll try the dremel option. The "bone lamp" has a $750 price tag, it's a good motivation for me to make my own...
Amazing and creative use of the PVC pipes. Don't Know how people get such a innovative ideas. Wish to have such light lamps for decorating home and garden area.

I believe a drywall router held on angle will make these holes based on the symmetry of each oval. Try a drill press and a clamp to ensure nothing moves when cutting with pvc.
ReplyDeleteI meant to say hole-saw. They attach to a drill for cutting circular holes between 1 inch up to 6 inches depending on the one you buy.
ReplyDeleteMaybe drill circular holes of different dimensions, then heat the PVC pipe and stretch it evenly as possible.
ReplyDeleteyou are exactly right that is how i did it. you can put a smaller pipe inside just before pull to stretch it out this will prevent it from collapsing and make it keep its form. the place that you use to stretch it will be deformed but that is the part that you will cut off straight. I will be making a video on this project soon and posting it on my youtube channel. at youtube.com/chrisgagnondiy
DeleteHey Chris; where is your video on this stretched hole lamp?
ReplyDeleteI must say, as a lot as I enjoyed reading what you had to say, I couldnt help but lose interest after a while. Its as if you had a wonderful grasp on the subject matter, but you forgot to include your readers. Perhaps you should think about this from far more than one angle. Or maybe you shouldnt generalise so considerably. Its better if you think about what others may have to say instead of just going for a gut reaction to the subject. Think about adjusting your own believed process and giving others who may read this the benefit of the doubt. ventanas pvc madrid

Style and design will likely be the key factors for those who are looking to purchase lamps solely for the purpose of decorating their bedroom. Obviously, there are many styles of lamps out there and it's almost impossible to pinpoint which style (let alone lamp) is most suitable for you, your sense of style and the look of your bedroom. lamparas de pared

ReplyDeleteDon't use a dremel.
ReplyDeleteUse a wood burning pen, substitute the nub to a hot scalpel. It becomes a hot knife and cuts right into PVC like butter.
