“This is a lamp I made. It has Applebloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo from lowest to highest. On the lampshade in the CMC’s insignia.
 
Height: 36in including shade  
Base: 6in x 6in  
Weight: ~3lbs  
Thickness: 5/4in  
Time: 24 hours  
Cost of parts: ~$15
 
The wiring flows through a 1/4 inch hole in the base up through a 5/8in bore into a 5/8in rod with a 5/16in bore into the fixture.
 
Tools used: Scroll Saw, belt sander, wood file, mitre saw, electric drill (not a press), scissors
 
Things I learned:  
-left handed scissors would make the fabric part easier  
-the fabric left bits of strings falling off which stuck to the shade which I couldn’t get off before putting the yellow on  
-the fabric deforms a lot when being put on the shade  
-my mother likes Applebloom the best”
