Back when I was gathering the parts for my project Namesake, I was looking into how to do the window. I finally decided on using the arm bones to go across the panel to the front fan.

Well what you didn't know is that when I went looking to buy the acrylic bones, I checked ebay first. There was an estate auction for a doctor who died. He had a complete "REAL" skeleton that was being sold group by group (complete foot bones, complete hand, complete arm, etc.). I bid on the three piece right arm bones and was outbid by 5 bucks! My max bid was $200.

So, if you ever look at my completed mod again, remember it was almost real.

The real thing would have probably been too big anyhow and you would have ended up having to cut off 50 dollars of bone :oP

Would have been a pretty crazy mod though. Just the shock value alone could have gotten you somewhere in a magazine or something I would think!

But would have that have been good publicity?

I think I can safely say that would have been the most bad-ass thing I'd ever seen. In hindsight, though, it's probably good.

/got enough questions about the small bloodstains on his old, rather sharp, cheap case
//eventually gave up on cleaning 'em off
///now has an unviolated case with rounded edges
