Not quite as cool as the old hand blown glass floats but hey, it’s still cool gear fro a far off place. When I lived in Alaska I learned to comb the beaches for old nets and broken plastic to get a fire going on the always wet drift wood. It works, just have to wait a while for all the plastic to burn off before cooking on said fire.

Yea, it’s a collection now. Rule is tho, no common Styrofoam ones…just uniqe stuff and no two of a kinds…
Keep an eye on it.
If you hear a scraping sound, and one hemisphere starts a slow jerking rotation, leave the area. You don’t want to be there when it unscrews itself enough for light to shine through the crack, because that’s when the articulated stalk with a sensor and raygun at the end begins to emerge.

Pix needs scale: take next one next to ruler. Or horse, if needed.
Open carefully – might be a fortune inside (no, not yen).

Rumsfeld found some Styrofoam piece of buoy but it’s not as cool as mine.

It’s a miniature Death Star.
