Jukebox question
« on: July 11, 2004, 05:27:52 pm »
I am considering building a jukebox. Maybe a replica of a Wurlitzer bubbler. I was wondering what is the correct name of the lights that go around the jukebox called?? . They look like colored plastic tubes...but that doesnt help me find them on a search of the net. ???

They are called simply, "bubble tubes" and you can buy them straight from the source www.victoryglass.com

One thing you might want to look at when I was looking at building my jukebox I found out that there are fake bubble tubes that are designed for PC case modders.

Either that or I know that bubble column lights were all the rage in wal-marts "funky light" section a year or so ago (the kind you can put the fake plastic fish in) perhaps you could incorporate a couple of those somehow...

These don't actually bubble, though.  They are hard plastic.  The plastic just has air pockets (bubbles) in it.  That's not to say they wouldn't look good.  I just wouldn't want anyone to think they were liquid filled and actually bubbled.

Just a thought...if you have the plastic covers, maybe using some rope lights (the "chase" ones) underneath might give a similar effect?

Contact Victory Glass and ask them to email you photos of the bubble tubes used on the Wurlitzer model 1015.
