Oozing Goo - The Lava Lamp Syndicate

I Can Take No More - Colossus Goo Kit Project (Sorta')

I've tried different coils, removing the small coil, putting in new custom coils, slowly warming the wax for weeks - still my Purple/Pink has not responded.  

It is just too sensitive to temperature changes in its environment - meaning it only runs well in a very narrow temperature range.  I'm convinced its the bloody wax.

So, I've drained the liquid, and I'm in the process of melting the wax on the base.  My plan is to goo kit it with clear liquid and that pretty neon blue everyone likes so much.  This should be fun!

The wax is now cooled and ready for the distilled water and surfactant.

I used just about 9 gallons of distilled water and 1 cup of surfactant (Miracle Bubbles).

It's ready to turn ON!  Crossing fingers!!!

The red tint is coming from the red 250w heat lamp bulb.  The goo and the liquid remain uncolored at this point.

Fingers crossed for you, Kirk!!!!  

Man oh man that is so cool!!

Hey, Keith!  Where have you been?  I'm counting on you when the going gets rough!  :>)

It's still warming up, starting to poke a waxy head up ever so slightly...

Keith, stay around, I'm no help with this project.  I'm just his "cheerleader."   LOL

You are MUCH more than a cheerleader, Libby!  One of your many talents.

Well I left the job sight, got a hotel, ate dinner, saw the new Star Trek (awesome by the way), came back to the hotel and got back to OG. lol

Hope it works great!

Ah Shucks, Kirk, you've made me blush, and that's not easy to do!  Thank you!

Libby - you are so welcome, my friend!

Keith - I was listening to a review on NPR about the new Star Trek movie today.  It was a good review, and your endorsement settles it - I'm going to see it!  (But I'm glad you are back to your OG duties, mister!)
