Completion of the Project
Students in the lamp design class work at different speeds. Some students tend to be more concentrated on the laser design and some more interested in finishing a lamp. Due to the nature of this workshop as well as varying interests and goals, there is a possibility that the lamp will not be completed within the four hour timeframe. If this is the case, we will make arrangements for you to return to collect the pieces and other materials or to finish the project during Open Making hours.
