Carpet Stand for Pablo Elise Lamp

I bought a fancy floor lamp (Pablo Elise 60) and I'm happy with it except that it is very unstable on my medium-pile carpet. This is my attempt at a stand which hides under the lamp and includes spikes which penetrate the carpet and touch the subfloor for a more stable footing. It turned out pretty well!

The finished product uses a set of 3/8" speaker spikes, which you can find on [Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002KR1QO/) or [Parts Express](http://www.parts-express.com/parts-exp
