| Non Scrolled project I just finished this lamp for a Christmas display at work.
It is mounted on top of an 8 foot ABS black plastic pipe.
The lamp is just two squares of wood. One a little smaller than the other.
I drilled 4 holes, on an angle in the corner of each square and put 1/4 dowels in them.
The lights are flicker flame bulbs inside two Christmas light sockets.
I bought a string of used bulbs from a second hand store and cut two of them off.
The cut off end was dipped in insulating rubber to be safe.
The lenses on the lamp are fresnel style lenses from the dollar store.
The rest of the display is just paper cutouts.
The backdrop is two paper dropcloths painted with spray cans.
