Let's Get Started
To reduce the risk of injury user must read instruction manuals for all tools used in this project. Wear eye and respiratory protection. Use clamps to support work piece whenever practical.
Step 1
We created our lamp by mounting a light from an old lamp through an aluminum tea kettle. Start by grinding an opening in the top and the bottom of the kettle. Here, we used the 932 G Aluminum Oxide Grinding Accessory included in the 4200 kit. Mount the accessory in your 4200, set your tool to a speed setting of 10, and apply a light touch to grind out the openings. Stop and check the size of your openings as you go, making sure you are creating an opening just large enough to snugly fit your threaded rod.
Step 2
Using the same accessory and speed setting, grind a notch for your cord to run out the back of your kettle.
