This lampshade is awesome even though it’s not as simple as that Egg Carton Lampshade I think it’s more impressive. Even more impressive than the final product is the way this unusual lampshade was created:
“The process works by sweeping a laser across a pan of powdered nylon; when the lasers hit the nylon, it fuses (“sinters”). The process repeats in layers, until the final product emerges. Thus, you can create interlocking shapes all at once–for example, a chain whose links are completely closed.”
Take a look at this video after the break and you’ll see how it unfurls:
