The First Light

The very first lamp I built was a special attempt. Because it was a gift for Mrs. P.
Looking back, I see so many errors; mistakes made with frustration but covered in love. While the learning curve was in the beginning climb, the final result was acceptable. What really counts is – she likes it! The lessons learned have treated me well. I can do things faster, with more precision, and using tools properly has made a big difference. But in spite of having made lots of lamps at this point, this is still my favorite. I think it is because of the simple elegance and no doubt, the love that went into the build. Don’t think I will ever top this one.
