The Kumiko lamp is finally finished. It took the longest time to wait for the arrival of the power cable, light and light socket (e14). I like it so much that I will probably make it again for myself, haha.

Incredible results, and I really love seeing the progress pictures! Thank you for sharing!

Is there any advice you would give to someone following your footsteps here?

Thanks :) I briefly mentioned this in another comment: Measure thrice and plan in some slack. I measured thrice but didn't plan in slack. Thus the frames where the littlest too large to fit into their places (~0.5mm) When forced in, the joints of the frame jumped open a little bit.
