6 Turn Counter / John G. Sesame

Here is the completed 6 turn counter :-D

For those of you who haven't played; the 6 turn counter is started the second the first player ends his or her last tour. All other players have 6 turns to complete their final tour or they're points are halved!

I originally intended for this piece to be set in a mini helicopter, but unfortunately that project fell apart. Plastic and "heavy" wooden pegs don't sit well together and the frustration caused me to rush into salvaging the pieces that were still good and accidentally getting a big piece of plastic to shoot into my eye (with the use of a dremmel). It scare the living Jesus out of me! I got the piece out by rushing to the sink and washing my eye out; it was very red, itchy and irritated for a day :-(
*Remember kids, "don't be a dummy" safety first! Use protective goggles when using a dremmel* :-)

The blue-print is made just the way I like it....simple, small, and drawn under secrecy from nosy co-workers!








For this project we will need:

-Vending Machine Bubble Container
- Vitamin Bottle Cap
- Tons of wooden pegs to make the landing gear, propeller, tail, and twin gatling guns!




Looking good Pilot!

John G. Sesame is ready to receive retrieval orders.







By the way, did you know that buying a bubble toy cost $1.00?! Seriously, it was a dollar! I remember these things being .25¢!!
