Step 2:

Prepare the slats by sanding them..

Step 3 ; Cut Circles

Now you have to cut circles for the top and bottom of the lamp.

I didn’t have a 20″ x 20″ board, so I glued two 10″x10″and connected it with another board for added strength.

Now draw a 20″ diameter circle and then draw an inner circle so you have a 2″ border. Cut the circle out. If you are using one board without attachments you can use the inner circle to cut the upper smaller circle.

Step 4: Assemble the component parts

NOTE: Make sure that you paint or finish the materials prior to assembly..After assembly, painting or staining the inside of the lamp is very difficult
