Hidden Glass
 
Mods delete post if not appropriate, but one of our esteemed SB.com members Eben or NEBE is trying to raise funds for making and hiding glass orbs on Block Is. I think this year was the first and he is trying to do it again next year. For info:

I couldn't make event this past year but wanted to. It would be nice to see pics of the items mentioned under each of the donations if possible.

Nebe 11-15-2012 10:35 AM

There should be pictures on the kick starter page of the pieces assigned to donation amounts.

Ahh. Actually, there are not pictures of the cobalt/ silver leaf ones, because I haven't made them yet. :).

Everyone wants to see what is the best kept secret at Quonny.

Clammer 12-14-2012 11:55 AM

I can,t wait to get my BI ball ...................will make a wesome gift <><><><><:jump1:

ProfessorM 12-14-2012 07:00 PM

it it a Woody Allen Orgasmantron Orb

Those look exactly like the glass orbs my mom brought from Hawaii when we moved back to the mainland in early 60's. Used by fisherman for their nets is what I was told. Unfortunately I busted a few as a kid. Still think she may have a few left. Cool project.

uh oh,now he is stalking Eben.
Press 1 for English

ecduzitgood 12-18-2012 01:25 PM

Who is stalking who?
 
Actually he is getting more publicity is he not? It was just an observation which will most likely turn out to be helpful.
In fact here is another thing that may help him:
Have you considered the possible liabilty if someone steps on one that is broken?
I would think at first he may be bothered but after he thinks about it he will see the amount of views tend to go up when I post (everyone watches a train wreck) and although he won't ever admit it I am indeed being helpful in a strange twisted way.:devil2:
I hope Bigfish Larry tries the same marketing technique, everyone likes finding plugs washed up on the beach.

Slipknot 12-18-2012 07:38 PM

Chris (SD) will you please knock it off, it's gotten tired and old

Wasn't it something our mothers' used to say that went something like this = "If you don't have something good to say, then say nothing at all"

ProfessorM 12-18-2012 09:36 PM

HA HA Chris got yelled at.:rotf2:

Merry Christmas all U bums

Curious, has a 2013 date been announced yet?

Nebe 02-22-2013 10:08 PM

The first weekend of June was the date last year and will probably be the same date for this year. I'm also going to go out there 2 or 3 different times and hide more so that there will be some to find all season long.
