Old rusty table lamp Restoration

In today's video, we’ll show you the renovation of an old rusty table lamp.
I got my lama from my friend for renovation - the condition was yellow color :)
The body of the luminaire (corpus, montura) is a mechanical base of the whole luminaire, it is used for mounting on a wall or supporting structure. It carries the other parts and is fitted with all the electrical equipment.
light source can be bulb, fluorescent, discharge lamp, LED. It is easily replaceable thanks to the standardized base.
The cover is usually transparent or translucent, easily removable, but in our case full metal, it works more like a shield. Sometimes only in the form of a grid or decorative lampshade. Mechanically protects a fragile light source. It improves light distribution and is the most striking part of the luminaire design.
Depending on the light source used, the luminaires are divided into:
filament lamp with incandescent lamps, halogen lamps or low-voltage halogen lamps
fluorescent lamps with linear or compact fluorescent lamps
discharge lamps with metal halide, sodium or mercury lamps
LED diode. (Wikipedia source)
action index:
00:01 showing the original state of the lamp
00:29 first it was necessary to grind the lamp cover rivets
00:53 using a screwdriver, I removed the cover
01:05 To unscrew the bottom Bakelite cover, I unscrewed the bulb
01:42 To completely remove the bakelite cover, it was necessary to unscrew the electrical cable holder
02:43 for easy disassembly I cut off the old old cable, which I intend to replace for safety for a new one
02:59 After removing the center nut, the lamp was finally broken
05:15 I cleaned all the metal parts of the lamp roughly with a wire disc
06:14 to a place where a large wire disc did not get I used a hand drill with a small wire disc
06:34 P180 sandpaper was used for final cleaning
07:23 The lamp holder had to be leveled with a hammer
07:40 I treated all cleaned metal parts with a rust remover
08:26 After the rust remover has dried, clean the remainder of the rust remover with a metal wool
09:23 apply primer
09:33 after the primer has dried, the unevenness that I filled with P360 spray putty has been shown
10:10 regrind the hardened putty with water sandpaper with a roughness of P1000 and higher
10:40 I applied the top synthetic paint on the perfectly smoothed surface
11:20 on the connecting piece I released a color imitating chrome
11:35 Finally, it was left to clean the lamp socket, because it is porcelain, so cleaning with a metal brush did not hurt the socket in any way
12:10 as well as bakelite parts
12:44 I applied white color to the inside of the lampshade after curing the top yellow color for better light reflection
12:54 I glued silicone wheels to the bottom of the lamp for better stability
13:30 and assembly can begin :)
14:40 done :) followed by a test :)
15:06 comparison before and after renovation

Как я люблю людей востанавливающих, реставрирующих что либо! Это как чудо оживления. Многие голосят, зачем возиться, проще новое купить, но мы и так уже захламили всё вокруг надоевшим, устаревшим. Браво мастеру!

[@irenbip7810]

Лампа из СССР. Где-то я встречала такую в детстве тёмно зелёного цвета. В виде гриба мухомора она смотрелась более прикольнее) тем более в детской) автору спасибо, что даёте старым вещам новую жизнь. Всегда буду уважать таких людей.

Great restoration! This little lamp shines bright, again.

[@gabrielniculaita8131]

Good morning. You managed to revive an old little lamp. I think it's a post-war model, the '40s-'50s, no more. It reminds me of the little lamps that we had (still today) in the sleeper cars of the trains on the main lines. I'm sure there were on the London-Edinburgh route. There are special trains for tourism that run at low speeds as in the good old days. I'm pretty sure the color matched the ambient decoration. In short, I stop doing the tour guide. You're doing real little miracles. Many people fail to see the beauty of an object when it is covered in rust and dirt. For them it is only waste without interest. You have a knack for seeing this kind of thing. You have a sensitive soul and you love beauty. Thank you for making me dream every time I play every video. You're doing a very, very good job. Gabriel (France).

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Thank you so much Gabriel for your chat, always pleased. It is a pleasure to read such comments that arouse my desire for the next project. I am grateful :) Radek

Zoo enjoy watching.👍🏼👍🏼🙂🙂🙂

[@VeradonaRestoration]

Thanks :)

[@josephmathis5795]

To me, this looks like a combination light and a small heater. The type of bulb would have been incandescent rather than today's modern LED. Even at 60 watts, the bulb and its proximity to the domed shade cover would have provided not only desk lamp light for reading and writing, it would also provide heat for ones hands held above the top cover to warm ones hands, even in a cold, unheated garret. Using an incandescent bulb, the cover would have been painted using a heat resistant paint. The lamp is short so it is easy to hold ones hands above the metal dome while seated at a desk. I think it is a student's desk lamp. Very nice restoration in the new LED age.
