Lava Lamp Century Baseplate

thingiverse

Lava Lamps are the most beautiful pieces of decor any retro home decorator could ever want. Alas, many of the vintage models that are found in the finest of thrift shops are often damage. Here I offer a replacement base plate for a Century model. For some God-knows-why reason, the Lava Lamp folks decided to put a post and screw on the bottom of the lamp. This necessitated a baseplate to raise the lamp up a tad so that it would sit flat on a table. Unfortunately, the baseplate is easily broken, and gosh darn it, you can't get parts for 40 year old Lava Lamps. So 3D printing to the rescue! This is a very simple solution and could benefit from remixing. Add a fillet, maybe a set screw hole. I'm including the FreeCAD file.
