FS: Numbski's Balls

That’s really going to be a real trick. I’m sure I can do it Ed. The question is how I would go about it. There’s 3 options I know of:

  1. Take a wood top, decorate it to look like a baseball.
  2. Take a white sanwa top, decorate it to look like a baseball (don’t need me help to do that!)
  3. Find a real (or fake) baseball of approximately the right diameter, set a threaded insert into it.

3 would probably look the best. I know I’ve seen antenna toppers that are about the right size - I’ll try to keep an eye out!

@UNW4NT3D

That just plain ROCKS. Glad you’re happy with it. Can we get a shot of the whole stick? :slight_smile:

Sure can!

If you want something other than the three listed below - post in-thread. DO NOT post unless you’re willing to pay. When I return, I have 3 joysticks I need to complete as christmas gifts, and I fully intend to drill tops for those. I will try to knock out other orders at that time. Again, DO NOT post requests unless you can and will pay! Do not PM me this next week. It’s not that I won’t replay, but on things such as the Ruby tops, it’s easier to gauge interest when I see everyone in one place. I’ll try to get a balltop page going on my site so that it’s a little easier to browse, but in the meantime, use this post as reference.

The pink ball top is sold (Mr. Sanity).
The green top is sold (RoboKrikit).
One of the two clear tops is sold (Joe T.).

My current stock is:

1 x Clear w/ iridescent finish
2 x Black Glass with metallic finish

$15/each, $4.75 flat rate shipping, can ship 4 in one envelope, so 4 balls would be $64.75 shipped.

I get back into town late tomorrow night. I’m off work on Monday. As of right now, I have a single order pending that is ready to ship.

Can you link me the Blue meteor and the Black Glass with metallic finish pics.

I can’t say for sure which is which in the pics above :wink:

Your Flickr gallery doesn’t work…

Edit: Oops. Previous page link works.

Second from the left, on top (Black Glass):

This is a blue meteor lit up. Having trouble finding one that isn’t:

The one in the middle in the very first shot above is a purple meteor. Just imagine what it looks like when you see some oil on concrete outside with some water in it - that rainbow-like effect you get. That’s what the finish is like.

EDIT:

Found a couple of the blue balls:

Much clearer, appreciated… So all are drilled and ready to be placed on the shaft? (no modification needed)?

Heh - I can sell them to you undrilled, but I don’t think you’d want to deal with it:

Of course, I rather have it drilled and ready to go :chat:

Hope I won’t get shot for reviving an old thread, but I’m quite interested in a few of your balls, possibly 2-3 of them. I’ll PM you with the specifics, how’s that?

Same here. What do you have available? If anything

I need to put this on page 1 - if you want to order, post in-thread, but also PM me. Apparently there’s no way to get SRK to drop me a notification when this thread gets updated. There’s an RSS feed, but still…

I’m VERY low on stock of balls ready to go out the door due to cold weather. Browse my Flickr page (in my signature), look around, ask questions. As soon as I can, I will knock out special orders. I won’t accept your money until it’s ready to go, but I’ll focus on requests before I try to build my inventory back up.

PM sent :wgrin:

so wats left in your old stock?

PM sent

PM was sent already (and I think confirmed), but posting here just to be on the safe side.
