According to the article they got everything from Penn State Industries.
The arm is model # DPICKER2

I have a couple of old lamps that have spring-loaded articulated
"arms" ad a clamp feature to allow fixing it (temporally) to a bench
top. I see them often in Thrift Shops and suspect you could pick one
up for a dollar or two.

Maybe that's the cheapest way to get "the arm."

I saw that also and I'm building my own "arm".

Be sure to click on the "View Larger" link.

Well, I think I'm going to try contacting Penn state and see if I
can't persuade them to sell me the arm. and assorted knobs.
