Tree Lamp 2.0 Part 3

To complete the lamp, all you need to do now is apply a couple of layers of stain and varnish. The reason I said darker the better is purely to hide the putty.

Finally, all that remains is to connect up the last of the switch, the lamp and the plug. If you are using a touch switch, mount a piece of metal and connect the earth to it. I used a strip of aluminium.
Remember to get all connections checked and test away.

Here's a few pictures of the finished product.
