Decorative Cap Shortage.. where have all the caps gone?
I have been on the search for a cap for my Lava Lamp... however, they are hard to find. I don't really want a 3d printed one. I want an aluminum one.. I'm a machinist and Im considering making a few out of aluminum. caps for pre and post 1993 (i.e screw and non screw)Is there copy right infringement issues? Is that why no one is selling them? I'm just confused why on one has done this before. What are your thought? Would something like that be desired?See More
