Abstract:
1. A method of manufacturing a decorative cover for a lamp post comprising: providing a mold with an inner surface substantially resembling a decorative cover of a lamp post; introducing a thermosetting resin within the mold; rotating the mold to disperse the thermosetting resin substantially equally across the inner surface of the mold; curing the thermosetting resin as the mold is rotated to form a body with a substantially uniform wall thickness and with an outer surface substantially resembling a decorative cover for a lamp post; removing the cured thermosetting resin from the mold; cutting holes in the top and bottom of the cured thermosetting resin to receive the lamp post within the cured thermosetting resin; covering only the base of the lamp post with the cured thermosetting resin; defining a hollow cavity between the cured thermosetting resin and the lamp post when the lamp post is received within the cured thermosetting resin; and maintaining the hollow cavity unfilled.
