DC109 Posted June 4, 2014 Report Posted June 4, 2014 Apparently you can build the best vintage Rollie reps up there; got to be worth something. Nice shots, Nanuq!
blue. Posted June 4, 2014 Report Posted June 4, 2014 Oh, yes, we are in that special time of the year. So far up north, you almost have 24h light all day-night long. Great mood (and timepiece), Nanuq!
jmb Posted June 4, 2014 Report Posted June 4, 2014 I remember there was a "Midnight Sun" softball league when I lived in Fairbanks...
dbane883 Posted June 4, 2014 Report Posted June 4, 2014 Allegedly you can grow monster cabbages there due to the 24 hour sunlight. Scary:
Nanuq Posted June 4, 2014 Author Report Posted June 4, 2014 And don't forget the monster pumpkins! Who wants to tell OSHA that this guy is about to get mooshed?
Nanuq Posted June 4, 2014 Author Report Posted June 4, 2014 Here's something I don't get..... how come the reflection in the crystal is not image-reversed?
Nanuq Posted June 4, 2014 Author Report Posted June 4, 2014 Maybe because it is not a flat surface, but a domed crystal?
jmb Posted June 4, 2014 Report Posted June 4, 2014 I wuz thinkin' a reflection off a mirror or window...
Nanuq Posted June 4, 2014 Author Report Posted June 4, 2014 Nope, I set it on the deck as the sun went down, took the first picture then turned and took the second. I bet it's that rascally domed crystal!
Mendota Explorer Posted June 7, 2014 Report Posted June 7, 2014 What are the specs on this build? It's beautiful.
Mike on a bike Posted June 7, 2014 Report Posted June 7, 2014 Specs? All gen and original, circa 1971. Well that about says it all, our guys are very very good at it but Gen is Gen period.
Mendota Explorer Posted June 8, 2014 Report Posted June 8, 2014 Wow. What a gorgeous piece. I'd be happy with a nice rep. To be gen and original is the icing on the cake. It doesn't get any nicer than this.
chronoluvvv Posted June 8, 2014 Report Posted June 8, 2014 those 24 hour sunlight veggies are pretty darn interesting
Nanuq Posted June 8, 2014 Author Report Posted June 8, 2014 Yeah baby, there's the mother of all Jack-o-Lanterns waiting for next Halloween! I bet you could fit inside it and scare the bejeezus out of some kids.
