I liked, very much, the original lamp stand with outer thread to hold interchangeable lithophane planet lights, but had some qualms over the lack of a cable cover and particularly a cable clamp. Hence this version which addresses both of those safety concerns and lets me use it as a base for some holiday themed lamp shades (here).

Extra parts needed to construct a working lamp base (all from Amazon):

  • GU10 Lamp holder (I glued mine in place)

  • 2-conductor WAGO style connectors (the chunky or flat versions both fit) x 2

  • Self-tapping screws (3 x 10mm) x 2

  • LED GU10 Bulb (I used a Nanoleaf Matter GU10)

  • 2-core flex with mains plug.

There are two clamp top pieces modelled which cater for thinner or thicker 2-core cable.

I printed the lamp stand in Prusament Jet Black PETG. Always use an LED bulb as they generate very little heat. The Nanoleaf bulb has the benefit of being multi-colour which looks great through a lamp shade.
