Interesting Lava-esque Whiskey Globe

[Carlos]

Saw this on Ebay...it would probably be cool if someone could retrofit it to be a lava lamp.

I see these all the time around here. The base is plastic and very small. It would melt if used for lava. Maybe glitter would work though.

I LOVE these. If you find them regularly, Autumn, I'd be very interested in a few, depending on price. These held Old Forrester whiskey.

Yes, the base will melt under lava-type heat; one member had one, ignored all warnings, tried it, and it melted. I turned one into a glitter lamp using a seven-watt bulb, and I'd really love to do three or four more.

What are you willing to pay for them? I will pick up any I see under that amount.

I'd like one or two more if you see any under $10. Low priority right now, but cool.
