Clarinet Lamp, circa 2005

I thought I'd start with some older projects I've had kicking around.  I apologize for not having any making-of images for these past projects. Oh well.  This is a touch-lamp I made from a clarinet (I've since been informed it may be a straight sax) and some left over walnut from a furniture project.


I find myself drawn to lamps in particular as they are useful and can come in any shape you can imagine.

  1. This is definitely a Clarinet. Straight Saxaphones (soprano sax) are keyed differently than this. Two of the things to notice are the "open" keys, and the lack of the three large holes near the bell.
