Re: T-173 Eye of the Idol
Thanks Victor.
But I don’t have AJNA (yet?).
Do you know the maker, Cahyo?
He lives in Indonesia.
Re: T-173 Eye of the Idol
Ah...I thought you got one already
Yes, I can recommend you to get it, Rob. You will love it.
I know Cahyo but he lives in different city but sometimes we communicate each other.

Hi everyone,Rob Rand wrote: ↑Fri Oct 28, 2022 8:22 amAnd to make everybody crazy, there is an amazing new super-de-luxe wooden exotic version of EOTI for sale now at Dynamitemagic:

Woohaa!
Only 275 euro!
Something for … you?
To make Rob even crazier...lol...I found local shop who can make a custom wooden box with laser engrave and it`s just only the box. I spent almost a day to make the interior compartments for the box to store the AJNA. I used maroon velvet which I love the color and giving the elegant look of the box. There is also a small pillow to make sure that the gemstone case will not move. And I use a big magnet to attach the head of the Buddha. I elevated the middle part with the box covered with velvet to store the pedestal. As final touch, I printed out the instructions and make it as a booklet and cut the booklet according to the size of the box. I am very happy to finish this box, the one and only
Hope you enjoy the pictures. Have a great day everyone !
Cheers,
Victor

Great job Victor....the box complements the workmanship of the "Eye of the Buddha" perfectly!

Re: T-173 Eye of the Idol
Great idea Victor, a custom made box for the AJNA!
Never thought that you would buy this version.
Although, it’s made in Indonesia, so … low shipping costs!

Re: T-173 Eye of the Idol
Ok now I’m confused…
I saw this video of Andy Martin, demonstrating Eric Hansen’s Eye of the Idol

The ANJA is an exact copy of this???

Re: T-173 Eye of the Idol
As far as I know Eric Hansen was the first to come up with a Wood version with Budhha head
I don't remember if his first version had these round metal ornaments but he has created some
very individual versions with different exotic woods and stone plates and colored real stones
It looks strongly like a copycat to me but maybe there is a business agreement ?

Re: T-173 Eye of the Idol
Thank you Bill, Rob and Olaf for your compliments. I think Martin has no idea that it was similar props with different producers. Eric`s version looks of course very nice too.
