Work isn't fulfilling my desires to build cool stuff at the moment. There's a bunch of cool guns and clothing in mass effect 3 and the railings on the mars base looked interesting too. I'm still watching the walk threw videos of it on youtube, it is a bit of a counter point to the starcraft 2 games I watch as the guy doing those is good and well spoken. And he posts losses as well. He played someone he knew was great and the next week was the top ranked player in north america, it was fun seeing him panic and still do ok. but I digress.


A while ago Adam Savage posted a link to Bone Clones a company that does resin and bronze castings of bones, he wanted to buy most of their catalog. I want to build things like some of it.

early humans skeletons, sabertooth cat skulls... this past week I found this up for sale.




Megalodon Shark jaw.

'Jaws' was a baby

So now I want to make a copy in painted sheet metal with nice polished alumiumin teeth, 1/4" plate water jet cut to shape, edges radiused, and polished, 2 machine screws to hold it in place.



Being a shark it has row after row of new teeth forming, curling into place for when the front ones get battered off. Forty six teeth times five rows; 230, seven inch teeth, 460 screws to hold them in place. Does explain why Bone Clones wants $27,000.00 for it. Plus shipping and let me tell you the UPS guy (or Girl) will not be happy walking up the driveway with that under their arm.

might be interesting stuck on a wall in my condo too.
