Converting an IKEA jacobsbyn into a table lamp

To keep on the recent themes of lamp designs, I recently designed a simple printable model that can be used to convert an IKEA Jacobsbyn lamp from a pendant lamp to a desk lamp. I find that it does not work very well as a pendant lamp due to direct line of sight to the bulb.

The design files can be found on GitHub or on Printables. There you will find more practical instructions.
