Paducah Home Theater Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) So, I need a stupid lamp. Not just any lamp, a dark and mysterious one that may or may not (probably not) have been used by 17th century caribbean pirates. I'll leave it open ended. Any ideas? If you know of any other items that might be cool let me know as well. At this point I'm probably going to put a lamp kit in a rum bottle but there's got to be something nicer looking.

oldtimer Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 I can send you a picture of a ships lamp converted from kerosene to electric. It may give you an idea, I doubt SWMBO would let me send it to you at any price, but who knows? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paducah Home Theater Posted January 12, 2015 Author Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) That would be cool. I had to look up what SWMBO meant. I thought it was a government agency related to imports. Edited January 12, 2015 by MetropolisLakeOutfitters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) I'm not all that wired pm me your phone and I'll text the photo to you. Otherwise it may take some time for me to figure out all of this. Edited January 12, 2015 by oldtimer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted January 13, 2015 Moderators Share Posted January 13, 2015 this point I'm probably going to put a lamp kit in a rum bottle but there's got to be something nicer looking. Well If you can't find anything you like and end up going the glass bottle route, I can etch the glass for you if you have ideas on what you would like ? I have a couple of bottles I am going to do that on for out by the bar, one is a dark almost black bottle that had Duggans in it, I just need to figure out a design.

K5SS Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I have that lamp sitting on one of my end tables. I love it but it might be time to take it down until next December:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancho Panza Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Bought a clear glass lamp & filled it with cigar bands; point is, you could fill one with whatever you want... Doubloons & Triploons? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
