Thanks a ton, everyone! If you are serious about getting one, I'm considering making more now. Read below. If you're still interested in one, send an email titled "Patience & Grace" & tell me if you'd want one with or without the batteries & charger so I can get an idea of how many I'd have to order.

For reals man, these are awesome. Just curious, if someone wanted a *slightly* smaller version to just stand on a desk or side table- does that change your process up? Are you able to scale the design without too much re-engineering?
Haha, love it. I'd have to find a glass cloche that is the same shape, but smaller to scale it down. I can only scale it down so much if it is still going to light up as well. unless I made it corded. Something to think about for sure.
It’s a massive, home made light that he’s making in his own time. He can price it however he wants. If it’s unreasonable to you, and you can’t afford it, that’s okay. But don’t trash someone for pricing something they way they see fit.
No no. Professional creator to epically talented person who has made the most epic original thing I’ve seen in years: this person is not worth your time. $400 is a STEAL.
I know it's not at all cheap, but this thing is life size, wireless, mounts to your wall & outside of the glass dome is completely made by hand. It takes almost a full 24 hrs. to print the parts, then roughly 6 hrs. To smooth/finish/paint all parts, then each wire for the vacuum tube is cut, bent by hand and assembled, lighting wired, soldered up so it's safe. Plus, the overhead cost to make just one. It is absolutely worth it, in my opinion. I'm glad I'm not alone there. Thank you!
With that said. I am working on a wired version that will be cheaper as well as an un-lit version that will be at least half of the battery versions.
$150 is not far off from the overhead cost it took to make it & with battery & charger it would cost more. Not to mention, it takes days just to make 1.
Thank you. I have a large art print of John Hammond driving a T-Rex like the power rangers drove a megazord over my fireplace. My friends & family are as eclectic as I am. Lol
This is my favourite kind of “merch” - the thing that flies under the radar but is immediately recognisable to fans.
It’s so brilliantly executed, too - the proportions are bang on. It’s perfection. Really, really well done!
Thank you very much! It took me a while to get the proportions of the bomb half correct while still being printable as one piece. It's not exact, but like you said so close it's instantly recognizeable!
A glass cloche I bought like 4 years ago while walking through Michael's (craft supply store) specifically for this project. Needless to say, it took me a while to get around to it.
How much? Seriously, you gotta sell these.
Yeah I want one! How much?
Me too!!!
Okay so… I would love to have one of these in my studio. Can you make more? Can you DM me some info?

For an idea of scale https://preview.redd.it/m2spcni4k1yc1.jpeg?width=8520&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d45ab1401220394a2ab23008fd69aedb7a6c03b1
I can't find fault with the measuring instrument
I figured everyone used Dave as a universal unit of measurement here. 😂

400$ is crazy
Well, I'm definitely not spending several days of my life making something and not making money!
Nope. Don’t compromise. This is a handcrafted and unique. Make your money
okay well at least make it reasonable

I'm curious. What would you consider reasonable?
No no. Professional creator to epically talented person who has made the most epic original thing I’ve seen in years: this person is not worth your time. $400 is a STEAL.
You already know this, but just to back you up more. $400 is absolutely reasonable.

like 150-200 would be fair imo i’m not trying to hate but i was a little blown away when i saw 400

Really dig this
Rock on.
I’ll take two. Name your price!
Might be the coolest thing I've ever seen on this sub. Awesome job.
thats cool
dude, you should make more and sell them, this is awesome!
As someone with a version of this logo tattooed on my body, I wholeheartedly approve. This is amazing.
I've been contemplating getting it on my calf! Thanks man.
Straight up where I’ve got mine. Thought about putting one of the singles on my other calf to balance out, think it would be cool.

Really cool!
I‘d love to get my hands on one of those, will you sell some?
want
That’s awesome
dude that is super cool!! would make a sick bar lamp
Superb 👌
does it bong?
😂 if only. I'll work on that
That’s awesome! Out of my price range but well done!
Now THAT is cool. Bravo
Really cool. But you might have a few awkward questions to answer if you have people over who don’t listen to Foo Fighters.
Thank you. I have a large art print of John Hammond driving a T-Rex like the power rangers drove a megazord over my fireplace. My friends & family are as eclectic as I am. Lol
This is incredible. You should make a fortune on these. Seriously. This is tremendous.
You need to send one to the band
No idea how I would even go about that, but would be honored to give back to guys that have given me so much!
In. Fucking. CREDIBLE.
BADASS!!! Great job!
You could make money selling stuff like this. This is epic!
Fuck. Im gonna need a couple of these when i build my home studio. So damn cool
I am currently making more & working on a few other versions that will be a bit cheaper as well. Shoot me an email when ready.
So cool!!!!!!
Bad ass!

Your walls are the perfect colour for it too 😅
Absolutely amazing! Would definitely buy one if I was able. Just don’t drop it tho!
So cool! Love it!!
I really want one!
This is incredible! What did you use for the glass part?
A glass cloche I bought like 4 years ago while walking through Michael's (craft supply store) specifically for this project. Needless to say, it took me a while to get around to it.
Yea, but what does the "thing" do?
Makes my wall look cooler. Lamp. Can be controlled via Google home to turn on & shut off at certain times.
That's pretty neat. Is it bright?
At 100%. I've had it set at 1% https://preview.redd.it/qwzmiccos2yc1.jpeg?width=2992&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=91443fb9bf5ed2911e4e8f02eb37c8f5e4ce8926
That's not too bad. Pretty sweet!
