I was on the road in florida this time last year selling glass with a glassblower out of Reading, Pa. and as luck would have it I was near my friend from high schools house so I was able to hang out for a couple days and get away from work. One of the neighbors had been evicted and out of the great big pile of trash we harvested a bowling ball and a mirror. Cut all the pieces of mirror up with a glass cutter and started siliconing them to the ball starting around the finger and thumb holes. We ended up mounting it on a dowel with bearings from a razor scooter so it would continue to spin from the thumb hole but could be taken off to, well i dunno, it was pretty cool to hold and swing around... His mom really liked it in her garden and it drives the neighbors crazy at night because passing headlights make the whole block go funky for a minute.
