Question 1

Is there a shade or hood that I could buy to put inside my lamp? The day light bulb i am using protrudes past the edge of the lamp.

Accepted Answer

No shade available unless you custom make one.  Try a few test pieces of an old plastic bottle. 1 Gal. Vinegar bottle is semi-transparent and will allow some light to come through. Whereas a 1 gal. Clorox bottle is opaque white and will stop light from going anywhere but down.  I'd use some blue painters tape to hold the plastic in place and do a few trial runs.  If it suits your needs you could either then use a HOT GLUE if the lamp bulb doesn't get too hot to melt the glue. Or you could rivet your new shade to the existing shade 1 or 2 rivets would hold it in place.  Plastic is easy to work with and can easily be painted to match the lamp with the new 2 in 1 spray paints.   If you don't like the idea of the plastic. Hobby stores or boot & saddle shops sell leather scraps that you could do the same with.  And then there is always the possibility of getting a thin piece of aluminum or copper to do the same.  If you're a bit creative, you could even decorate the new metal with some tin punch or some hammered looks or even a combination of the two.   Make it a project and have fun.

Question 2

Does this work with 240 voltage?

Accepted Answer

NO, it doesn't work with 240 voltage.  The answer about whatever the bulb is, is a very wrong answer from one who knows not what they say.  In the U.S. household current is 110 voltage. It would be impossible to plug this into a 240v socket as the plugs and sockets are not compatible.

Question 3

how wide is the shade?

Accepted Answer

It's 6.75" wide.

Question 4

What is the clamp made of?

Accepted Answer

Very CHEAP, Low Grade "Pot Metal" that will Strip the threads when you attempt to tighten the clamp, the Clamp is USELESS!!!!!!
