orange lime3

I started with a brand new clear/lime from Spencers. Then I added 3 drops of red color and 3 drops of yellow color. Those 6 drops made the lamp not flow.

So I had to tinker for a day or 2 with Kosher salt and pump type hand soap to get the flow back.

After all the tinkering, it flows almost like a pre-china globe...even though it isn't.

Good work man. Love the color combo and the flow is super.

Thanks.
This is one experimental lamp that came out very nice. I have only done a small amount of custom lamps.
I made this one for me and a friend asked me to turn a 52oz clear/red to blue/red and a 52oz clear/lime to yellow/lime and they were both successes also.
I tried coloring a 20oz globe and that didn't work so well.
