To further my modelling I wanted to tackle something more challenging so I took some more photos of my desk lamp and had a go at recreating it.
To start with I made the base and built upwards building the hinges and rivets peice by peice. The springs were made by mapping a straight line on the grid, creating a ring around it and transforming it into a spiral shape. I then ported that over to my lamp model and scaled it down to fit.
Afterwards I made a test showing the lamp bending on its hinges. After lots of tweaking I finally got something I think is quite accurate.
