USB Led Lamp on a Telescopic Tripod in Loft Style

Have a nice day! The idea came up to make a table lamp on a tripod in the loft style. At

the same time, provide for the possibility of connecting it to a laptop via a USB port. As well as adjusting its height with the help of legs. A diode was chosen as the light source.

We will need:

1) Oak plank size 15 (thick)*70(width)*500(length);

2) Paint bottle;

3) Bolts m4*20 - 6 pcs.;

4) Nut m4 - 6 pcs.;

5) Carnations 10 mm. - 10 pcs.;

6) Bolt M6*40 - 1 pc.;

7) Nut M6 - 1 pc.;

8) Spray paint black - 1 pc.;

9) Old USB mouse;

10) LED diode;

11) Chip with converter;

12) Plywood.

Tools:

1) Desktop circular saw;

2) Milling machine;

3) Grinding machine;

4) Laser (or jigsaw);

5) Two-component glue;

6) Drill;

7) An axe (To cut off the wire epically)

Oak was chosen as the material for the legs. We make a longitudinal cut (Pic. 1), we get blanks with a size of 15 * 10 mm. (Pic. 2). Using a milling cutter, we sample a quarter of 5 * 5 mm, (Pic. 3.) on three blanks on one side, on two blanks on both sides. (Pic. 4 and 5). We cut along the length: we cut the strips with a one-sided sample by 180mm (6 pcs.)

We cut the strips with a two-sided sample by 210mm (3 pcs.), 20mm (3 pcs.) (Pic. 6)

We grind the resulting blanks.

We glue a 20 mm blank with a two-sided sample between two blanks with a one-sided sample, on the opposite side we glue the slats for greater rigidity. (Pic. 7)

On the grinder, we round off the face of the resulting glued blanks. (Pic. 8)

We also sharpen on one side of the workpiece with a double-sided sample (Pic. 9), on the opposite side, retreating 20mm, we drill a 4 mm hole in the center of the workpiece and remove the chamfers (Pic. 10)

For the manufacture of the platform and hinges, I used a CNC laser machine, having previously drawn a plan for cutting parts (Pic. 11)

I also cut out decorative linings for M4 nuts (Pic. 12)

The cut-out parts must be sanded, glued and assembled (Pic. 13)

All parts are treated with mineral oil.

An empty spray can was chosen as the material for the ceiling. (Pic. 14)

Previously, it is necessary to lower the residual pressure from the can (I did this by piercing a hole in the upper part of the balloon).

Then it is necessary to cut the balloon in height (65mm) and remove the paint residues from it.

After using sandpaper, it is necessary to erase the seam of the bottom of the cylinder and prepare the surface for painting (Pic. 15)

Then you need to expand the bottom 180 degrees and fix it with the help of two-component glue (additionally strengthening with a round insert made of plywood) (Pic. 16)

We assemble the mounting of the ceiling from pre-cut parts. (Pic. 17)

Using acrylic paint, we cover the ceiling and its mounting. (Pic. 18)

A diode was chosen as the light source.

And as a power source, a USB port.

We assemble the diode mount from pre-cut parts, glue the diode to the mount. In order for the finished part not to fall out of the ceiling, we glue the end around the circumference with duct tape. (Pic. 19)

We take an old mouse or any other unnecessary peripherals. We cut off the USB connector with a wire from it. (Pic. 20)

We connect our mouse wire to the DIODE wiring.

We assemble the ceiling light.

We fasten the mount to the tripod platform. We install a ceiling lamp in the mount with the help of nails. (Pic. 21)

Connect the flashlight to the USB port (Pic. 22)
