AMS Showcase: Lamp by Josh.

This lamp with a ceramic base and a wooden lamp shade was made using many areas of our makerspace. This illuminates the type of excellent, multi-skilled type of projects that can be made here. We wish Josh all the best as he starts grad school in Austria in the upcomming weeks.
