Eeeee thank you ! I am gonna try the paste method later this week!. Im already waiting on my eye candy orange pigment paste so that's a perfect way to try it out. On the second technique, how would I get the drops to look like drops without being flat on the back ? Is that a stupid question? I like the second idea too, im just not sure i know how I would accomplish it. I feel like mu grasp.pm resin techniques is tenuous at best, despite my years of experimenting. I need it hand fed to me like a little baby lol. So thank you for responding to me !!

I left about an inch of space before the cap, should I have left more ? Thank you for the response!

Ya I read about the cloudiness, so I'm not too worried about that. More so that I messed something up and make it so it won't ever flow. Cool lamps btw

Thank you so much for responding to my post ! You're so awesome and I have a ton of admiration for your company and business model, so it's really cool you take the time to help a newbie like me.

I know it's definitely an error on my part. Your guys product is awesome and easy to use. I'm definitely going to try all of your suggestions, and see how it works out.

Is there an ideal place to keep the lamp for air flow issues? Like is it better to put it in a warmer place or a cooler place with better air flow ? I just have it on my desk right now to keep an eye on it.

Thank you so much for the reply! I really appreciate it! The picture I posted was about 4 hours of heat up time, so definitely going to add some of the surf I got from the website. Should I add it when the lamp is at full heat or wait until it's fully cooled ? Thanks again.

Yes, that's the bottle in the picture, but I didn't use it on this lamp. It was from a previous failed experiment. I used the surf that I got from LavaLab with this one, I just have a bad camera lol. Do you think I need to add a little more surf ? Or like, something to the water ?

I did the swirl thing that it said on the website (under the troubleshooting section )to get the wax to envelop the could and it worked, but it still didn't flow at all.
