As a Stanford PD grad myself and working Mech Eng, I want everyone to know that it brought a tear to my eye to see those cubes. They were beautifully constructed! It is very very difficult to weld a cube shut....the heat from the welding makes the air inside the cube hot, and as it cools it tries to pull air inside -- typically at the expense of the last weld point. The weldor even went to the extra effort of grinding the cube down to make it nice and pretty. I'm tempted to take ours out and get it nickel plated.
Those cubes were well made, beautiful objects....always nice to have wonderful physical objects in a Game. These types of clues make great show pieces for future rookie Gamers.
So..... that cube was appreciated more than you know. Thanks NMS. |

Thanks! I forwarded your post on to Kara, who made these cubes for us - she really appreciated the compliment! I know she put a lot of effort went into making them and was really awesome in making sure everything was perfect, so it's great to hear that it was appreciated!  |
