Step 1: Steampunk Steampipe Lavalamp

Step 1 is to find a lavalamp.
I had this lavalamp option but had no idea how it would look with a smaller topside then the lower part.
But i gave it a try..

A brilliant idea!! Somewhere in my laboratory I still have such a lava lamp, hope I didn't trash it...
Great job!!!

Ever since I saw the first lamp I have wanted to do this. But Since I'm more of a cyberpunk and scifi fan I want to do my inner tube as a blue and has some silver ends for it.
Now if I could just get all the materials together and about an afternoon of free time.

What was the tool cost of this? It looks really cool and I want to make one for my room!

Hello Raptor1x,

The lavalamp i bought for € 7,50-
The pipe-ing for € 6,-
Bronze spraypaint € 9,-
Wood i've had laying around, just like the bolts & nuts and
some small other parts.
Two hot-glue-sticks € 0,20-

So, it's about € 23,- and a look in your workshop.

It's quite cheap to do...

Have fun.
