You know, reading this I had an idea.
Someone mentioned using the 2x2 chrome dishes from aquazone
(originally used as actually reflectors for the 9v lights) as
treasure. But what if you stuck one of those on top of a light
saber handle? It might look like a nice big challis, or perhaps
a bowl or maybe even a trophy of some sort. Either way, I bet
it would look pretty 'treasurey' :)

| (...) That would be me. (...) I just tried it with chalice. It's pretty big, so it looks better as a trophy. In a way it makes it look like a lamp. The light sabre hilt makes it look like the Olympic torch if you stick a flame in it! Way cool... Hey (...) (25 years ago, 23-Jun-99, to lugnet.general)
