The Woodshop Shed

Barn board lamp

Furnished content.

Here's a quick project I banged out using some old barn board. The size and shape is identical to my previous lanterns with a few minor differences. Instead of glass I used galvanized mesh that I spray painted black and instead of using a candle I put in a small candelabra light. The barn board has a great rustic look to it and the areas that show saw cuts I burned dark with a torch to blend in.
Its pretty rustic looking and not suited for every decor but we have a room that suits it well.
Thanks for looking.

The clock is modified from a design by Schlabaugh. I made it from oak with a Purple Heart insert. It is finished with linseed oil. The clock works is from Klockit. The tile was purchased off eBay.Thanks for all the nice things people have written, said and thought about my work. Since I retired, I have enjoyed wood working and learning new skills. Thanks again for encouraging words.

Mostly hand-carved with a bit of detailing using a micromotor rotary tool. 12”” diameter x 2” thick. Butternut with a rattlecan lacquer finish. This is one of those classic projects that rested on the shelf for a couple of years.
