Jade's Hero Found Part Shoulder Lamp
Posted: Wed Nov 12, 2025 10:42 am
Progress on my hero shoulder lamp build.
Gonna get an aluminium bracket from caramacs prop shop to finish it off for mounting.
Genuine superswitch, genuine vega lamp and genuine reflecta lamp.
Cast lamp bracket and resin printed front plate by caramacs prop shop.
Currently the lamp is only part assembled. The arm and lamp are fully assembled and the connection for the arm, handle and box on that side are done.
To do:
Drill and bolt the other side of the handle on (still waiting on some reference photos from Harry to be completely sure on the bolt placent)
Make styrene panels for the box
Buy and mount aluminium bracket
Paint and weather.
Wire up lamp.
Very excited about this build. Now i just need to find the correct umbrella swivel found parts for the arm.
Think once this is done I'm gonna sell my chef lamp and my spat lamp as I don't need 3 lamps.
If I decide I want a backup lamp so I'm not taking my found part one to certain troops that might be too rough then I might buy a new kit from caramacs prop shop that I can assemble from scratch.
my chef and spat lamp came built by someone else with a few things that I'd have done differently, and I just can't get over the amazing quality caramacs put out.
