IKEA FADO Lamp ceiling mount adapter

thingiverse

Note: Apparently, some Fado lamps are smaller than others. The solution is either so scale everything by X and Y to 94% as @Photelegy did, or pick the lamp that is big enough at the store.I was looking for a low height ceiling lamp that can accept large LED bulbs, like the Philips Corepro LEDbulb E27 Pear Frosted 23W 3452lm. There was nothing off the shelf, but the IKEA FADO lamp, which is, unfortunately, is a table lamp. So I designed this mount that can take a FADO lamp shade and mount it on a ceiling. Makes for a very inexpensive ceiling light that can do up to 3500 lumens with excellent light distribution.Parts:IKEA FADO table lampSurface mounted lampholder such as this one. I had some different ones lying around that I used. 2 small diameter pins to help assemble the collar inside the lampshade. I used 2 cotton buds with their tails removed.
