pretty cool stuff.especially the tennis balls one.

 

nice link.
I need to see if i can fit my gargantuan head into my soda bottle after i'm done.

 

intresting, soooo how IS it done?

 

My guess? They take two jar halves. Then they melt the glass together with the objects in between the halves. Same way they put 'ships' in a bottle.

 

I knew a retired CPO that lived in San Diego years ago, that actually BUILT the ships inside bottles, using long forceps and swabs for the glue. It took him as long as 5 months to start and complete one. I agree with you though on your theory here, half jars...I`m just curious how he managed that without charring the things inside. Pretty damned hot I`d think.

 

Well, its just one bead, but yeah, it would get very hot. Not sure how they would cope with that.

Purists do put ships together inside the bottle. Talk about tedious!

 

Not sure if tedious is the right word lmao.
