I made another thing:

Die Kurbellampe

















The base is African Idigbo hardwood, carved in my garden with an angle grinder The crank is from FL52CZM - the black and red FE I acquired from Paignton. Unusually, for me, no 3D printed parts were involved in the making of this thing, although I may add a plaque with the engine number once my filament is dried out.

Pretty happy with how this turned out
