Computer Chassis Lamp 
             
This lamp
started out as the drive bay from a computer chassis that I picked up
while walking home from work one day. The size, proportions,
perforations
and mounting holes made it ideal to use as a wall sconce. Only one hole
had to be drilled in to convert it into a lamp. The "shade" was made
from a piece of scrap translucent plexiglass. 
             
This lamp was the topic of the first article I wrote for Readymade.
Later on I realized how fortuitous the find was, because I've never
been
able to track down another chassis to match it.
