Meet Bill Craft. He makes lamps from various devices and scavenged items. He had a show here, but by the time we got there, most of them had been sold. So I found these photos on the web and from papers.
Bill's lamps are made from garbage disposals, colanders, strainers, blow torches, erector sets, & gauges. One is even made from an old warhead! The warhead is second from the left.
“A
lamp doesn’t rush the dawn—it simply glows with grace through the dark.”

He's impressive!
I love the upcycle. Some of the art almost look steampunk. How groovy.
Oh my - I would never think about using and recycling those things.
Wow, those are amazing. Bet they're very pricey as well.
What a creative guy.

Truly fascinating! And so creative. I have seen warhead lamps in antique shops. xoxo
