A stroll through the lamp aisle at your local thrift store will reveal there's not only tons of different types of lamps -- from task to table to standing -- there are a myriad of base materials.

The EarthTronics 12-watt LED Plug In is part of a family of lamps. Available wattages are 10 watt (800 lumen) and 12 watt (1100 lumen) in both G24q and GX23 lamp base types.

Lava lamp creators are notoriously tight-lipped about their secret ingredients, but DIY lava lamps aren’t impossible.

The lamp base features nuts inserted mid-print for easy assembly, and the swivel is actually a two-piece mechanism printed as a single assembly.
