For starters, this was not my idea. Somebody else made one and posted it to the internets, I was inspired. I already had a dummy (training) RPG, all I needed was the lava lamp. 30 bucks later, some steel pipe, a few pop rivets and some paint (and a little welding for the base).....here it is......I just plugged it in. Guess I have to wait a few hours for the first time for the wax to really circulate. What do y'all think?

Pretty cool. I used to have a lava lamp when I was a kid. Probably about an hour to heat up good before the wax gets going.

That is too damned cool.
Kinda like when the anti-war hippies stuck flowers in the barrels of soldier’s rifles. Lol.
Ok sorry, nothing like that.

If that's a demilled RPG-7, that's one expensive lava lamp!

Pretty darned cool idea!

I had an RPG kit a couple of years ago which came as a part of a package deal, but I had/have no RPG interest.

Had I seen this idea sooner, that could have changed with the lava lamp idea! Love it bro

I love it but is it NY compliant? Most kids will look at that today and ask "What is it and what does it do?"

Of course they know what it is. They all play Call of Warfare Special forces medal of Honor. In the video games you can carry like 10 of them. But none of them have the HSHW. (hippy seeking happiness warhead)

As for NY compliant......I figure that lava lamps are most often associated with drug use.....and in NY drugs are legal and encouraged, so Im sure this will be an exception to our very stringent and effective anti gun laws.

Well either way I like it and it is a cool idea and certainly nothing that anyone else would have in the man cave, at least that I have ever seen.

Very cool Scott! I saw one recently on Instagram and thought about making one too. Looks like you beat me to it. What size lamp did you use?
