WTB century base
Started by jeff in Buy/Sell/Trade Zone. Last reply by jeff 21 hours ago. 3 Replies 1 Like
Hi fellow lava heads!Been lurking here for a while as I built my collection up, but finally needed to post as I'm looking for a part. I recently picked up a slightly pre-90's (I think) century off of craigslist. It's in good shape overall, and looks good from the outside. But the base, specifically the bottom plate that's steel, is rusted badly. It doesn't effect the function of the lamp, for now, but it might eventually given that the bulb mounts to the rusted plate and might fail at some…Continue

For the Crestworth fans out there: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2532080923478883/Disclaimer: I don't know one fiber optic from another; I could be totally off-base. Then again, this could be a tasty little treasure to the right collector.Continue

I WILL BE NOTIFYING THE MODS OF THIS JUST IN CASE THEY WANT TO ALSO POST A WARNING UP!!!P.S. The weird thing is he goes through social…Continue

New Mathmos Lamp
Started by doddy in Collecting. Last reply by Erin on Monday. 27 Replies 1 Like
On the latest Mathmos blog, they say they are releasing a new lamp in the autumn. What are your thoughts? Do any of you have any information? I am hoping that it's a larger lamp like the lunar, but knowing Mathmos it will be another Neo variant or use the astro bottle. Let's at least hope we get some new interesting colourways as the current range is getting a bit stagnant now. Continue
Fiber Optic Spray replacement
Started by Peggy in General Goo. Last reply by Critter on Sunday. 6 Replies 0 Likes
Hi! I'm new to this group, but just managed to get my hands on a vintage Fantasia 4000 Sunburst Chrome lamp - minus the fiber optic spray. I know finding them is really hit or miss, but can one be fabricated from the safer new plastic fiber optic cables? Are there any directions on how to make one or is anyone making these at all? I am pretty good craftwise, but this is a new direction and I'd rather not reinvent the wheel...Continue
