The light for the centre of the lamp section developed a lot as the model progressed. I had originally designed the model to just have a simple painted concave section to represent the light source which then became a wooden bulb during the lathe process and later a real bulb.
The decision to insert the real bulb was one which I am glad I took as it significantly improves the standard of the final piece.
The biggest problem was getting the bulb cut without shattering the glass, which was easier said than done.
