King's Pyrate Posted November 22, 2008 Posted November 22, 2008 How many buckets of dirt does it take to get to Oderlesseyes Cove from yours? eagh eagh......Looks like ye was gettin a start! Too many buckets, I am afraid....perhaps I'll hire some lads ta dig for me....lol Which way be the Spanish Main? The signage is a great idea! LoL... "A Mash Unit fer Pirates!" eagh eagh... OOOO does kinda look like the sign on MASH. Ye mentioned Hurricane..How bad was it? lots of wind and rain...blew down some branches.....lost the roof to my boucan...I think the three weeks with poison ivy was worse....makes me afraid to go back outside...lol
Littleneckhalfshell Posted November 23, 2008 Posted November 23, 2008 ""How many buckets of dirt does it take to get to Oderlesseyes Cove from yours?"" Just the odd workings of my mind, the above sentence set the gears turning..... Put the dirt in a Jar! An Old gallon pickle jars would work best Then put it on the shelf with the other odd 'pirate' items, and you can sing "I've got a jar of dirt, I've got a Jar of dirt!" You could sell the jars of dirt on E-bay or if you use some real dry dusty dirt, you could put a inflatable bladder in and just under the dirt and connect it to a intermittant air supply so that it would appear as if Davy Jone's heart was beating just under the dirt Some day I hope to have half the pirate cove you guys have been working on, This is one thread that I really look forward to continue. No Fear Have Ye of Evil Curses says you... Aye,... Properly Warned Ye Be says I
blackheartedbess Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 At Corona Eye aquired these "Treasure bars" and decided to embed them into the Dead Mans Cove bar room doors. SWANK ! Aye, but I surely do recognize these here Treasure Bars! They look fantastic set into the doors! Nice job, matey!!
Gunpowder Gertie Posted December 1, 2008 Posted December 1, 2008 I have to say- I've read this whole thread, and just am amazed at the transformation your pirate cove has taken! You've done an amazing job, mate! Makes me wish I hadroom to make a little pirate lair..though I guess my bedroom could suffice, since it is presently taken up with garb, and wigs and hats and swords and mugs and makeup- scar and otherwise and well... Arrrr! You've done yerself proud! And I know this project will just never end, but keep getting better and better! BTW- at one point you were looking for speakers for a bit of music? You know you can get speakers that look like rocks? Would be especially good in or around the waterfall, I be thinkin'. If ya haven't already.. The shanties would sound like they're coming in o'er the waves... :angry:
oderlesseye Posted December 9, 2008 Author Posted December 9, 2008 (edited) A BIG New Piratey Treasure chest has found residence in me cove.. An Early Christmas present it be... It presents a new project to make a false bottom and build it up with foam and carve it so that trinkets and gold coins ect can be glued to it.. The foam core I make will have a base color of Gold as well..I think I will add a skull with a sword thru it.. One constraint to making this is the prop has to be made in such a way that I can flip it upside down for transport. The reason is so the Mound of treasure can be of a greater amount when on display... We will have a grand Guild yard with this and Willie the dread Pirate ( Statue ) and the Barrels.. Speaking of Guild yards ..The Rum Runners is the best! Sounds Like a subject for another thread.... Any way here be a few pics of me new treasure Box..

Ransom Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 Wow, Eyes, that's a great score! You keep this up, you're going to have to build on an addition to your pirate cove! ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold... You can do everything right, strictly according to procedure, on the ocean, and it'll still kill you. But if you're a good navigator, a least you'll know where you were when you died.......From The Ship Killer by Justin Scott.
