In this episode of my abandoned building renovation, I show how to build a really simple DIY pendant light or chandelier, with no wires showing, for your kitchen island. I made the light fixture out of aluminum C-channel and welded the aluminum with no welder - just using an easy DIY brazing process. I used chip on board (COB) LED strips in the pendant light. The COB LED strips are great because they give a continuous line of light…no dots! I then used strips of acrylic as a diffuser for the LED strips, and a threaded lamp pipe to hang the light fixture and hide the wires.
