Well, sure, Skip...even I make those..here's an 18-incher hanging in my shop, composite plastic globe with a standard swag fixture, interior glass stain and a sheet bend float rig tied by me. But I suggest to anyone the joy of collecting the real deal as well....wonderful things..

Basement Kahuna, Love the floats too, but its the rest of your workshop that makes me jealous!! Its like one of those "hide and seek" books. Find two tikis, two old lanterns, a wood mallet and the word "Oahu". :)

TikiMeplus3, Here's an old 11" float I picked up at a yard sale a few years ago for 10 bucks. It was a rare find!
Even the rope is original. Notice the japanese marking stamped on the side.
This one will not be getting a hole drilled in it for a light!
Its been hanging on my back porch for awhile which would explain the layer of dust. I guess it needs cleaning.
