I love it. Everone knows a woodworker lives in this house as soon as they see the lamp. Is it "tippy" when raised to it's highes position and how did you conceal the cord?
It's not tippy, but then we no longer have little kids in the house! The cord runs along a dado on one side of the ratchet post which was then filled in with a strip of wood. Let me know if you want the plans.
Geppetto, I love it! I'd be interested in those plans, if you're willing to share, & if you don't mind me asking. Great design. Thanks for sharing.
