These jack stands were donated by a friend who wanted me to transform them into something new. “Surprise me, make anything”, she said.
They bring back fond memories of camping with her grandfather since they were used to set the camper on for every summer family camping trip.
The vinatge label reads ‘Camper Jack: Grants Pass, Oregon’.

Whether you have a castle or a cottage, these lanterns will provide the atmosphere. They are made with scrap steel and are one-of-a-kind pieces.
The tall shade slides up over the low profile handle to access the candle platform. Its perforated steel gives the light a hypnotizing pixel effect. The wide lantern loads from the top and comes with a recessed handle. The exterior pattern on each was a 2D panel that I cut down and reassembled into a 3D cube.
