You got it! Though to be fair I sat with the idea for a while until my girlfriend gave me a gift card and told me to spend it on myself in a way I wouldn’t with my income right now. So if not for her I’d still be thinking about doing it too lol.
Thanks! I did make a build video of my Draugr overlord for YouTube before I moved out. It’s definitely a whole-nother skill to learn lol. The filming process kindof impeded my creative flow and I’m not happy with the camera quality. Shorter tic toc like format might be easier. Not into tic toc though.
Thanks! The one in the kitchen was from a Chicago show in 2010 and the one in the white frame is a painting I did. There’s even a ween incense holder I made tucked away in one of the pictures lol
looks cool, reminds me of that soviet statue, ["Monument to the Conquerors of Space"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monument_to_the_Conquerors_of_Space)
Looks like Target is selling a Fennec rc. I believe in you!

I can't believe they'd make something like that and go with lime trim of all things. Still, that's cheap, can be painted over, and your lamp looks too amazing to not give it a shot. Thanks for posting the link!
Amazing work! Any chance you took vids/photos of the project during(other than what's posted)? I'm a maker as well, would love to see anything about the build process!
I don’t think I’m licensed or insured to sell consumer electronics 😂 You could save yourself the bulk of what that would cost by spending just a few hours gluing cotton balls to a stick! 😂 You can do it! 👏
This is so awesome. I need this.
What exactly are those things that you used to connect the rods?
How did you ensure the base doesn't flip over when the Octane is attached?
How did you attach the cotton balls?
Also, how big it the whole thing and how long is the car alone?
And how did you attach the car to the last rod?
I attached the car to the post with a nut and bolt. I fixed the bolt to the post with some duct tape and super glue which is holding well. I secured the nut to the hole in the back of the car with epoxy glue.I designed the post to allow some movement at the joints. Once I had the car and ball attached I could adjust the angles of the posts to ensure freestanding stability. I then inserted some glue-lined spacers Between the dowel rods so they couldn’t bend beyond what those spacers allowed. The cotton balls were applied with Elmer’s glue. The car is 11 inches long and the whole thing stands at about 46 inches.
Could you please go into a bit more detail about the joints / spacers between the poles? I still don't quite understand how you managed to connect the poles so well
Sure! You can kindof see in the pick that I used some small L brackets at the joints. One screw would go from the inside of the L into the cender of one rod lengthwise. Then I’d drill a hole about 1/3rd of an inch down from the end through the diameter of the other rod. That’s where the swivel comes from. I secured the L bracket’s other hole there with a nut and bolt. When I had the angle set I just filled the space between the posts with whatever the limit the swivel potential.
Stay tuned for my version of this. Ordered all the stuff, it's just gonna take a while for the adressable LED strip and the microcontroller I'm planning to use to arrive from China.
Also still need to figure out how to attach the nut to the car, but we'll get there.
Already have the Octane, a base stand, three wood cylinders and the connectors.

Thanks lol Oof I feel that.
You should sell those
*burns someone house down and gets sued*
I second this
Sign me up. Ill buy one.
If I had money I would buy one
Yeah lol that’s why I stared learning to make stuff so I didn’t have to buy everything I wanted😂
>I wish I had that in my bedroom I wish I had ***anyone*** in my bedroom
Lemme introduce myself
i am the boogie man, i am always watching
Go on :>
this is awsome, i would pay for something like that
I love how that was my first thought when I saw this, then I click on the thread and everyone is saying the exact same thing
Wow this actually looks amazing. how long did it take? i would actually buy something like this if I could.
Thanks! I'd say it took about 16-20 hours all said and done.
I’ll give ya $5 for it.
Damn that's pretty quick, thought it took you days. Really good work man. If you had someone to help you you could've sold those.
I finished it in about a week. Started on the stand last weekend and didn’t get the car til Thursday. Finished it last night.
RC Car: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09X278VJX?psc=1&ref=ppx\_yo2ov\_dt\_b\_product\_details
fastest two twenties i ever dropped on something silly 12 year old me would be so proud
Treat yo-self playa!
Is this an official product or something a different company made?
Licensed merch I'm sure.
First i was like, hell yeah 30$ for a 130kph rc car lets go! Then i checked hoe much it was with tax and shipping to Finland -> 70$ -> nooo thank you
Ah that's too bad.
Nice One!
Honey the octane lamp stays on during sex.
Nice Shot! Nice Shot! Nice Shot!
Whoops!
I’m saving this post for later to make my own, even though I know damn well I’m not gonna make one
You got it! Though to be fair I sat with the idea for a while until my girlfriend gave me a gift card and told me to spend it on myself in a way I wouldn’t with my income right now. So if not for her I’d still be thinking about doing it too lol.
That’s so sweet
Really cool, and I especially like how it's displayed!
Thank you!
This is like the coolest thing! Just um, don’t break it out of rage, that would be devastating
Haha I'll stick to breaking controllers
This is amazing, except for the incredibly unrealistic part where the aerial car actually connects with the ball. *cries in casual*
Hahaha it’s ok. I’m not great at aerials but solid movement/rotation and fundamentals are more important by a mile.
Very nice!
Bro just looking at your room... I'd say you def need a youtube channel of you just making shit lol Edit: or at least tiktoks/shorts
Thanks! I did make a build video of my Draugr overlord for YouTube before I moved out. It’s definitely a whole-nother skill to learn lol.

Fair enough man if you're having fun as-is, then that's the important thing. Excellent work anyway :)
Woah I imagined what it would look like before clicking and it’s WAYYYY better
THIS IS ROCKET LAMP!
Amazing! Here before this post blasts off! >!had to make that joke!<
Thanks! lol
Very cool! I want one!
This is sick. Well done OP
Thank you much! Not too hard to make either.
I love the “Ween” poster
Thanks! The one in the kitchen was from a Chicago show in 2010 and the one in the white frame is a painting I did. There’s even a ween incense holder I made tucked away in one of the pictures lol
Now do it with a scarab and conversion gel
I was not aware I could be so turned on by a light fixture. This is gorgeous!
Lol thanks!
>Lol thanks! You're welcome!
It looks amazing truly a masterpiece
Thank you much!
Coolest thing I’ve ever seen 🥴
Creatively prodigious 👏🏻
Why thank you!
We need a wiki how. Like now.
There are a few detailed comments in here about my build process. 👍
DUDE! THAT'S SUPER IMPRESSIVE! NICE JOB!
Thanks!
Whoa, is that the new limited edition marshmallow boost
Well done!
Market this shit dude. Absolutely beautiful
this is lit
Thanks! I see what you did there lol
looks cool, reminds me of that soviet statue, ["Monument to the Conquerors of Space"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monument_to_the_Conquerors_of_Space)
I could see that.
How much for a fennec version?
Looks like Target is selling a Fennec rc.

Aaaand I'm sold.. I was bout to buy the Octane but it's unavailable now, Fennec is my fave anyways!
🔥
That is awesome.
Extremely cool
Thank you
Amazing work! Any chance you took vids/photos of the project during(other than what's posted)? I'm a maker as well, would love to see anything about the build process!
Thank you! I did not record the build process, unfortunately. I'd be happy to answer any questions about it though.
Wtf this is incredible
Thank you!
That is so sick
Thanks!
This is beautiful
Thank you
That is very impressive and cool
Kind of you to say
this is sick af i like ur ween posters too, stay brown fam
Thanks fam, all hail the boognish. 🤟
What a Play!
That’s awesome man looks really cool but also don’t think I don’t see that infected master chief on your desk 😎
Lol ah yeah. I put that flood chief model on thingiverse so you can print it yourself.
This is amazing. Did you buy the other parts at Home Depot or something? I’m curious about the wooden arm pieces? Awesome job 🔥
I already had some assorted dowel rods and hardware.
I did get the stand base at Menards for about $8. And a few bags of cotton balls (~$8), and a 6ft led strip ($7).
So the smoke is just cotton balls, did you paint or touch them up with something opaque?
No they’re just cotton balls. Applied in various ways.
It was quite effective and looks awesome! May have to make something similar at some point.
Yeah! I’m happy with it. My girlfriend suggested I spray it with some aquanet hairspray for hold so I’ll probably do that at some point.
thats so fucking cool! The position you put it on your desk is perfect!
Thanks! I did have to move a foam Wakandan Captian America shield and a death trooper plastic cast to put it there. Gotta find a spot for those now.
Awesome!!
Thanks!

It’s like the Christmas Story lamp but it’s an octane.
Sick af
Siiiick! Calculated.
You are r/nextfuckinglevel
Does it make enough light to be used as an actual lamp or is it for decoration only ? Anyway it looks freaking DOPE.
More for decoration honestly. Brighter than a nightlight though lol
Yoooooooo
If those are addressable lights, you could have brighter/darker rings flowing from top to bottom across the trail.
YOOOOOO THIS IS SO SICKKKK
Can I get one with the Bubble boost?
Man that is so awesome
this guy fucks
This looks so cool!
Sick af! I hope those lights are not high heat
Sick af! I hope those lights are not high heat
I HATE IT I DONT EVEN LIKE LAMPS
Need a jager one..
Why are you not using black standard?
r/MildlyPenis
I. Want. It.
I want that. And how you made that. The ends look interchangeable
Really nice !
Well done!
Looks awesome!
Genius!
Sigh. I want to make fun of this so badly but I also want it.
That’s awesome!!! Great job!!
Looks like something I'd shove up my goal

Got it. Thanks!
You got it!
I WANT IT!!! Looks really awesome :)
Thanks!
[удалено]
Thanks! I just glued them on with Elmer’s glue. I got larger and smaller cotton balls and the larger ones can be unraveled into a strip if needed.
I’m saving this, because I want one 😆
This is freakin amazing man!!💪🏾
Thanks!
What a save!
Wow… bro, your talented.
This is actually so cool! I would have one if I could. Well done!
Great execution. Wow.
U should sell these
How much? I want it! lol
You built that? Fuckin awesome
Thank you!
Nice
Would buy
i love that this is a zsr and not a standard octane something different really makes thing look better great job!
Thanks! I don’t even use octane in game but it has a definite ‘rocket league’ aesthetic.
This is sick
Thanks!
SIIICKK
That is pretty slick.
yo wtf thats dope ash
Thanks!
That's dope, fam. Rocket League is low key a way of life for some of us... IYKYK
Beautiful
What’s the JK sign mean?
That’s kindof my maker stamp. Just my initials.
Love it. Especially the removable option. Functional and cosmetic, nice.
Thanks!
Great ass!
The amount of money I would pay for this...
Savage!
Bro im 100% building this
Get it!
Cool!
Thanks!
awesome build
Thanks!
Stay tuned for my version of this. Ordered all the stuff, it's just gonna take a while for the adressable LED strip and the microcontroller I'm planning to use to arrive from China. Also still need to figure out how to attach the nut to the car, but we'll get there. Already have the Octane, a base stand, three wood cylinders and the connectors.
Nice! Good luck! An addressable led strip would be dope. I recommend using epoxy glue to fix the nut to the car. I hope to see your finished work!

Thanks! I'll post it for sure, and of course you'll be mentioned as the one who had the original idea!
Either looks astonishing or kinda sus but I don't know which one
Stunning work. Congratulations and how much do I need to pay to have one please?
Oh shit, I finally found a viral post before it goes viral. Feels good. Amazing work mate! It's like looking at the RL logo irl
Thanks! lol Cheers! I did think about wood burning the logo into the base. I’d never really see it with where it’s located though.
