i had some nice pics of this rig floating and some underwater pics and one NICE apprentise hunter, but none of the water pics came out---------------i think the sea life 75ft. camera has failed.

anyway, i did not find much, but this rig does work pretty good.

did find what appears to be old oil lamp or something like that - sound off if u have any clues as to what it might me

good luck

Great setup. Looks like fun. Are checking out the bikinis with it too? Okay I am a dirty old man.

About that oil lamp shade. I believe it is a nautical oil lamp. Because of it's rough finish I suspect it came off a working boat. Oil lamps were and still are used by sailors conserving energy or for those boats that do not have auxiliary power. i believe that your piece may be quite old - like 19Th or 18Th century. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable can verify this.

Wow Max, that's way cool, neato and narley. You should have been a Disney imagineer, they have nothing on you.

Max I do like your set up expecially the huge sand wheels. Do you have someone watch the mini beachcart so it isn't heisted while you are under the water. Maybe with some more floation you can launch the whole thing. I really like it an am going to make me one since I sold my hookah. Thanks Max.......

I do think that is an oil lantern shade.
