Question: How to re-purpose an old, thrift-store lamp.
Option 0: An old, thrift-store lamp can easily be repurposed by careful disassembly to reach the portions you wish to re-use, such as the cord and light socket, being careful to make sure the lamp is plugged in when you are removing the old plug, then replacing the salvaged parts in a new fixture such as a chunk of wood.
