NER TAMID in the WORKS


The Ner Tamid or Eternal Light is essential to the synagogue space.
We selected a mid century modern swag lamp that is complimentary with the wood used for the ark and reading table. I thought putting glass in it would be easy...but I quickly discovered that the points of contact between glass and wood are slender. 

I have glued in just one piece as a test. For once I actually have a plan B (I hope I don't need it!)

Come back tomorrow....I'll tell you how it's coming along.

And now I am off to have a date with a charming 4 year girl who wants to make her own glass mezuzah for her new bedroom. I will post pix of that adventure later!
