"Epsom salt is indeed corrosive to metal. That's why you can't use it in things like hot tubs, etc. I'd venture a guess and say it hasn't been a problem because the wax has protected the coil for the most part, maybe you…"

Something Interesting About Me:: I love tinkering! I have some old lamps that I want to keep original, as well as some that I am 'saving' by making up some custom lamps. My current most exciting lamp is a Grande Starship kit I'm building.
