String lights in resin lamp


Recommended Posts

Made a table lamp using string lights embedded in epoxy resin connected two pieces of cedar. I allowed the string lights to get to close to the edge when I poured the epoxy resin.  Thus when I sanded the sides, some of the wires were broken.  For example there are bare wires protruding.

This is a very involved project that I want to salvage.  Could I solder the exposed wires on the outside of the epoxy and regain the continuity?  Another option is to try to remove the epoxy around the wires, but I do not think that would be possible because I bent the wiring into each crevice.  It resembles a spiderweb in disarray.  Any suggestions other then throw it away and start anew?
