Some of you may remember me, I'm the guy that made his own motion lamp by replacing the wax with ferrofluid.

For Those Interested in Making Your Own Lamps,I know how difficult it is to find parts. I was wondering how much demand there is for empty bottles for those of you that prefer to goo kit your own lamps? I have a supplier of bottles/bases and can buy large quantities now. It's everything you need to make your own lamp minus a goo kit and spring. Everything else from bottle, socket, bulb, base, cord, and cap included. Also, this could potentially be an opportunity for an enterprising goo head…See More

Christian BayLee replied to k-nano's discussion Ferrofluid + Motion Lamp = EPIC (made in the USA!)"Very cool! Thanks for sharing. That ferro stuff flows a lot better than the wax in that same lamp I bought on eBay. Luckily I was able to dump that crappy lamp in a buy sell facebook group.."
