At first I thought it must be April 1st, as I don't deserve MSOTM, as there are MUCH more talented people on this wonderful forum. But I'll gladly accept it. Of course this means I had better tidy the lamp up now and finish it to a standard that befits such an honor.
Thank you gentleman.

It's a joy to see your work and your working, David.
(I suspect you weld, knock down the stalagmites and stalactites, planish some, and then dress off the top, going to metal finish/polish ... ?)

Greatly appreciate your sharing here.

Thanks for all the replies guys, I have learnt most of it from this forum.

Kent
My Ali gas welding is getting better (thanks to your eyewear, torch and DVDs) so the finished weld isn't too rough! I take the top off with a die grinder and in this case all planishing was done on the wheel which leveled it nicely and didn't need too much nit picking to get a good finish.
I take my hat off to anyone who has to earn a living from metalshaping, cos it takes me ages to get an acceptable finish.
