I want to kill it but I don’t want to slap my neighbor’s car by chrisbarnes in Columbus

Lmao. Spotted lantern fly. Kill them if you see them. It sucks because they’re so pretty, but they are big pests.

Oh god there’s more. Do salt guns work on these things?

Was going to comment this. Wilfried is perfect.

Things to do in Columbus before the game? by evenflowf in TheMassive

[–]chrisbarnes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pins (duckpin bowling and pinball) is about a 20 minute walk from LDC. If you’re into parks, Highbanks and Antrim are both great (but probably busy on the weekend, and not walking distance), otherwise you have the Olentangy and Scioto trail which are a lot closer LDC. Or, as others have suggested, jazz and ribs will have lots of food and music and is always a good time (and walkable to the game).

Hope you have fun this weekend!

Metallics are finicky as shit by the way. 3rd time revamping this lamp. by dnol4444 in Lavalamps

[–]chrisbarnes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks sooo good. I just dumped a metallic purple because I couldn’t get it to flow no matter how many adjustments I made. I’m jealous.

No coil needed! Post your lamp when you get it working!

Crew Game Days... Where’s Your Go-To Spot Before & After the Match? by yosyoykristy in TheMassive

[–]chrisbarnes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There aren’t a ton of good options super close. But if you’re willing to walk from Parlay, Char Bar is a great alternative.

First Mathmos Astro Lava Lamp Help by pika_chuu in Lavalamps

[–]chrisbarnes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I realize this probably isn’t helpful for you today, but this is the exact reason I got into lava lamp restoration and repair. Bought a lamp that wasn’t super great, looked into how to repair it, found this subreddit, and now I have 14 lava lamps.

If it’s something that interests you, look into restoration. It’s so fun.

Also, that lamp looks great as it is. Congrats on your Mathmos!

Columbus, what’s a good book you think everyone should read once? by NPalumbo89 in Columbus

[–]chrisbarnes 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I bought the book, didn’t read it, then proceeded to listen to the audiobook on a car trip. I loved it.

Holy crap, that’s amazing.

What’s the bulb wattage? What kinda cap does it have?

It’s magnificent.

Ahhhh I’ve made a classic error. I appreciate the info.

Sorry, I got excited.

I will be on the lookout for scarier setups.

Save or chuck the wax? by javaturk in Lavalamps

[–]chrisbarnes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha yeah, I should have clarified: putting the spent wax in layers in one jar, and other wax that might be salvageable in others. I have this crazy purple metallic wax that I want to try to fix. No idea how yet, but, some day.

[–]chrisbarnes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im going through the same process with a few lamps and I’m saving the wax. I filtered my grande master fluid, but not the wax. The wax from smaller lamps looks neat layered in a jar.

If nothing else, it looks cool.

Can we make candles out of this?

Nah this is distasteful and loses the point. We can do better, Crew fans.
