===========================================================
I have built a few lampshades over the past 25 or so years.
about 1,080 or so, many have been one to three hour start to finish time
panel lamps
about 150 have been Odyssey
about 200 or so Worden, many before the "full form" styrofoam was developed
what shade do you have in mind?
how deep are your pockets?
do you have a follow up shade (same size) in mind?
worden's can have the pattern exchanged
odyssey tend towards using the same pattern only for the given form
For me (re-sale) Odyssey is only way to go as most of the retail
purchasers' need the reinforcement of seeing the expensive shade they
are buying illustrated in any of about 3 major Tiffany Shade Art books.
More questions? ask here or try direct to me
