WANT: This Giant Multi-Colored Crystal Skull

I've been looking for something to tie my living room together and I think this might just be the thing: a 145-lb skull carved out of a solid piece of flourite. Did you hear that, George Lucas? YOUR CRYSTAL SKULL WAS A TURD COMPARED TO THIS ONE! Plus the rainbow beauty sold for a paltry $3,000. That's asswiping money! (says the guy who got his water shut off on Friday).

The skull is 16.9 inches long, from front to back. We specially saved a large piece of high quality fluorite for caving this titan skull, and were all amazed by its beauty when all the caving and polishing were done. It has a rainbow of colors all over its surface. When putting it under the sun, the light will get through it and be refracted into uncountable particles, which resulte in the glow with amazing colors. The best camera will still fail to freeze all the colors in one photo. So you get to see it with your own eyes.

So awesome. Admittedly though, I would feel bad owning it knowing all that flourite could have gone to help prevent cavities in third world countries. "Tell me you're joking." Ha -- joking about what?

Hit the jump for a bunch of closeups of the massive domepiece.

Thanks to Dan, who has a skull made out of macaroni noodles because that's what kids make shit out of.

    Tired of nuking your brain with cell phone radiation? ME NEITHER. I can't get enough of that stuff. I think it's because I used to rest my head on the microwave when I was cooking Hot Pockets growing up. But for those of you who care, Pong is selling a line of cases for popu... / Continue →

    This is a skull carved from some older-than-dinosaurs computer manuals pressed together with a vice by Maskull Lasserre. That's right -- his name is Maskull and he carved a skull. What are the odds? "So high it's ridiculous." So NOT worse than winning the lottery? Hit the j... / Continue →

    'Raspberry Pi' is a $25 computer on a USB drive. It's also delicious, so I'm more than a little miffed I don't have anything but a half gallon of Juicy Juice and a single expired yogurt in the fridge right now. Oh -- what's this?! Moldy cottage cheese. *tastes, begins retch... / Continue →
