FLEXIBLE PLYWOOD LAMP // MID CENTURY MODERN // CNC CIRCULAR SAW // CNC MACHINING TIPS AND TRICKS
#bwmenlightenus #patternedplywood
This Mid Century Modern Flexible Plywood Lamp is my entry in the #bwmenlightenus Challenge!
It is also part two of my CNC Circular Saw series. As far as CNC Machining Tips and Tricks go, I think that The Ultimate CNC Circular Saw is quite unique. I definitely plan to experiment more with the CNC techniques that I discovered in this project. Be sure to SUBSCRIBE!
I consider this to be within the “Modern“ style because that is where I took my design cues from. I especially like the work of American furniture designers and furniture manufacturers that influenced the design world in the 1950’s and early 1960’s. A few of my favorites are Charles and Rae Eames, and George Nelson. Also companies like Herman Miller and Heywood Wakefield. I will admit that I have a real passion for lamp design!
I know some people have the opinion that CNC machining is not “real“ woodworking. If you have a similar opinion, please take a close look at this project. I designed this specifically for CNC. Although not impossible, the organic shapes may have been difficult to produce with other types of woodworking tools. Note: I do not consider this to be a DIY project.
