Sheet Metal Lamp

Did you know that consumption makes up about 70% of the United States GDP? Mass marketing and production has only been better with modern technology. This culture of consumption also means a lot of waste whether it be from excess food or scrap metal from vehicles. In this project, sheet metal will be utilized by making a lamp out of this. A layout of this lamp is presented using AutoCAD. This project aspires to optimize the sheet metal and leave as little waste as possible. Sheet metal is durable and corrosion resistant. It is typically aluminum, copper, or stainless-steel sheets. Thanks to CAD, this project would not need to be drafted manually which could lead to inaccurate calculations and more time for labor.
