Hi! In this instructable i'll show you how i made this cool wall light. The light is made from an old bike frame and some leftover wood.

Cutting!

After marking the frame, take the metal saw and cut the frame in half.

Pre-assembly

It's now time to start pre-assembling the light. I used a piece of threaded rod and matching nuts to mount the freshly cut remainder of the frame to the wood.

Drilling

Mark the tube and then drill the holes to route the cable.

Sanding and Painting

I sanded both the frame and the wood. I then painted the frame black.

Finish!

It's now time to put everything together. I used a LED bulb with matching holder.
