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.

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.

Question 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.
I hope Bigfish Larry tries the same marketing technique, everyone likes finding plugs washed up on the beach.

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.

NEBE: how's the making of the special items for the Kickstarter supporters, and OH yes the orbs for the island?
