<p>I've done successful gookits on a couple grande globes but I'm running into a problem with the rubber stopper on the top getting sucked into the lamp. One time it happened a week after I finished the lamp after it had cooled, and more recently I had it happen to my other lamp a few weeks after finishing it and it happened while the lamp was running, so it causes significantly more of a problem because now I have to redo the lamp to get the rubber stopper out of the wax.</p>
<p>Has anyone…</p>

<p>Has anyone else had this problem and what might be the remedy? I can't seem to seal the metal top cap properly with pliers, and sealing that better would be my first instinct but how do I go about that? If you have any ideas involving buying products, please link these exact products in your reply. I've bought a bottle capper to put caps properly on my 52oz globes, and it's in the mail, but the grandes seem to pose more of a problem.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance :)</p>
