How to make a simple lamp from PVC pipe

Hi all! On the Internet you can find a bunch of homemade products made from PVC pipes. It would seem, what can be made from a PVC sewer or ventilation pipe? In fact, this material is simply a godsend for craftsmen. After all, the simplest PVC pipes can be quite easily and quickly transformed into incredible household items.
Now, I will tell and show you what I came up with.

I ended up with this lamp.

Tools and materials

To make it I needed:

I took a pipe for ventilation. Diameter 10 cm, length 1 m. Flange diameter is also 10 cm.

Making a lamp from PVC pipe with your own hands

I started with the simplest thing and assembled the base of the lamp. To do this, take a PVC flange, a polystyrene tray and use the flange to squeeze out a circle. The result was a perfectly even circle.

Marked the center of the circle and, using a light bulb socket, pressed a circle in the center.

I insert the cartridge and fix it with hot glue.

I insert the resulting structure into the PVC flange. And I also fix it with hot glue.

The base is almost ready. All that remains is to make a hole for the power cable. To do this, I insert the base into the PVC pipe and make a through hole. Select the diameter of the drill according to the thickness of your wire.

All that remains is to make a slot in the pipe (I bit it off with wire cutters). This way you can easily remove the pipe from the base. For example, if you need to replace a light bulb.
IMPORTANT! Use either an LED or energy-saving light bulb. An ordinary incandescent lamp will melt the lamp!

I move on to the most labor-intensive stage. I apply a random design using electrical tape.

I take the engraver and start cutting out triangles. The process is quite long, so be patient :)
The process is very dusty! Take care of your own safety! I recommend using safety glasses and a respirator mask.

I used these cutting discs.

It is best to use a larger diameter disc. It is more convenient to cut with such a disk and the cut will be more even.
The degree of conversion of a pipe into a lamp.

We can finish here. But you can improve the lamp a little more. For this purpose I ordered from China LED light bulb with RGB backlight and Bluetooth speaker - http://ali.pub/3xqp1b.

The diameter of this light bulb is 95 mm. It fits perfectly with PVC pipe. Control is carried out from the control panel.

Thus, I got a spectacular Bluetooth speaker with RGB lighting. The lamp fits perfectly into the interior of my room. In the evening it creates a cozy, romantic atmosphere.
That's all. I hope you liked my work.
