New from Aperture Labs, Combustible Lemons

[Harry Bardwell]

That's right folks, the all new E-Lemon-8! When life gives you lemons you burn down its house!

It has hand cut and placed logo, the next ones I'm doing will have pro cut vinyl though, and possibly sounds as well.

Thanks, I know its a really simple prop, but after seeing a picture of one a friend's wife cross stitched for him I had to make one .

Well I did a little more work on my lemons. I got some logos professionally cut out of vinyl, you know the tough stuff that goes on your car . and was doing some more mucking around and came up with this.

Do any of you guys think there might be any interest in a run of these?

 

[Scifideity]

Harry, did you save the electronics for the grenades? I was able to hollow out the lemon and get all the electronics and speaker into the lemons so they still make the sounds. Even with the JB Weld around the top you can still hear it very well.

You can get toy grenades with the sounds effects pretty cheap in like 4 or 7 packs on amazon too. Dollar general used to have them for 1.00 each but stopped carrying them.

That's just awesome!!!!!!!!! I want one, any interest in doing a run????

 

[Harry Bardwell]

I had thoughts about a run, even with the crates and all. I decided not to save the electronics because I thought it being stuffed in the lemon I would loose a lot of sound quality, and it would be a lot more work for something that would only last till the batteries died, since they would be glued in.
