Wow. I know it's just because I'm a EE geek, but those are beautiful. Stunning.

I keep meaning to build one of these for a bedside lamp.

They look extremely similar to the sort of one off design pieces that appear in stores like 'Design within Reach'. I've found that means that a simple standing lamp will cost about $10,000 - rather than $20 in target for the design copy.

Some people have longer reach than others (e.g., me) apparently. But at least they have one of my pictures on the wall of the store in Austin :) (always got to get the plug in ;) )
