And the hand-tied netting alone is worth more than 90.- bucks! And yes, it is a misconception that Polynesian restaurant net floats were out of glass. There were more resin ones than glass around - and now BOTH are very rare. But since it is a misconception that is COMMON, Tiki Hula might be right: Some not-in-the-know folks never touched such a float, and might assume that it has to be out of glass. But I venture to say that the one who pays the bucks that win that puppy is aware of Skip's valuable craftsmanship. Here's a truckload of Kelbo's resin globes :) : [ Edited by: bigbrotiki 2013-11-02 22:31 ]
