Workshop - Lesson 8

I have very nearly finished my lamp but have now come across a huge design problem. I don't know how I'm going to attach the second part of my base. I have tried gluing it but I don't know if it's going to set. I don't think I'll be able to screw it in as I might hit me electrical wire. I will have to talk with Mr Andrews next lesson about what I should do if my glue does not stay. I have looked over my designs and now know what I should have done instead. I shouldn't have cut the timber but instead slotted my aluminium in between the base. I will post a photo underneath of how I could have designed it instead.
