DIY Junk box #1

A pair of old floor lamps had made their way into the garage, which is the lovely wife’s way of saying “put this in the trash”.   I disassembled the lamps to keep the push button floor switches and decided to try to make something out of  the bases.

Two rules for this project.  The first was $0 spent.  Anything on hand that wasn’t earmarked for another project was fair game.  The second was that it was a junk box from scrap, so no spending a lot of time fussing over it.  The goal was to make it look good while also putting it together quick and dirty style.

I've had these hinges laying around for years, I don't even remember where they came from
