I love it. The possibilities for Steampunk lamps is endless, and there is a big market for them.

Wow, that's fantastic. Just out of curiosity, what caliber electrodes are those?

That has to be the best looking lamp I've seen in a long while. Everything just sits together perfectly and the overall effect is extraordinarily well-balanced and functional-looking.
Admiration.

Nicely done,Sir. Inspirational, I must say. Do you produce such gadgetry with the intent to offer such for purchase? Or are they keepers? If the latter is the case, I envy you your reading time, just knowing your tomes are illumed by such beautiful creations. If, however, you do decide to part with this, or a similar replica, I would love to know if you ever travel with them North of the 49th. Splendid either way.

Excellent work! Now that's the sort of thing I'd like to have a go at myself - just need to find the right parts! Lamp builders from across the pond always seem to have access to the best bits.  SS
