Broken Lamp Base
I recently moved and oddly enough broke two lamps. Neither have any electrical problem, but the cement weighing them down has cracked apart and fallen out leaving them leaning. Is there any way to re-pour the base with something? Both lamps are metal.
Thanks for any help!

Growing up we had a desk lamp and Dad actually filled it with concrete to keep it from tipping. Of course you can't use just Portland cement. You would need to add sand and maybe aggregate to at least 1/8" to get strength. Anchor cement which has additives to give it strength would work well.
