The Das Avonni photo 978 22 300 right The wooden frame of the Das Avonni photo To anyone not familiar with disc golf it is more or less the hippie form of playing golf Basically you go to a disc golf park with some friends start at the tee and throw your disc towards the basket The discs are not exactly Frisbees as they tend to be made out of thicker plastics and are consequently always much heavier than regular Frisbees Just like golf you see where your disc lands go to it and throw it again There are about 18 disc golf parks in the greater Austin area and I have played around 7 of them To date I have no hole in ones but I have been pretty close and have made a few birdies As you can probably tell the game is scored just like golf and scores are typically in the same range as a normal golf game strong Building the Das Avonni strong The only drawback to disc golf is that it s pretty hard to practice it without actually going out to a course At least in golf you can purchase a small hole for your backyard for practice putting and chipping Disc golfing companies have offered a similar product for the sport though it is obviously much larger and expensive Because of that I decided to build my own All it took was a metal pole some ply wood a bunch of wooden dowel rods and some spray paint and waterproof cloths for the aesthetic The first part of the project simply consisted of cutting a circular top on the band saw This was probably the hardest part of the whole thing though it turned out just fine After this I created the box bottom and used the drill press to make a few dozen holes around the base in which to fit the wooden dowel rods Atop the dowel rods were narrow strips of plywood simply to hold the dowel rods together The entire apparatus had 1 5 holes drilled through it s center pieces in order to fit the metal pipe into it strong Finishing Touches strong photo 817 22 0 right The finished Das Avonni sitting outside in front of my Explorer photo Once the initial design was completed and as you can see by the pictures I hung chains from the top which ultimately ran together to form a three dimensional parabolic shape to the basket as is pretty standard with the disc golf baskets In addition 4 extra chains were strung along the Z Axis of the paraboloid to aid in slowing down the disc once it hit the chains All in all the chains still proved a bit too thin for the project but it was not that often that a disc would fly through them without stopping Once these chains were attached I bored a 1 4 hole through both the top and bottom portions of the metal pole which allowed me to add lock bolts to the apparatus thus securing the basket to the pole With that in place I decided to add a bit of feel to the basket and with cans of red and yellow spray paint available in the garage I painted the bottom portion of the basket red and the top part of the Das Avonni yellow Finally the cloths that were added were actually disposable rain slickers The material was perfect for this project as it easily stretched to my liking and was very easy to staple gun it to the painted plywood strong Naming the Das Avonni strong Anyone who is rather keen with the small disc golf world may have already picked up on where this thing got its name from One of the leading manufacturers of disc golf products is a company named Innova I believe pronounced in uh va Avonni is simply Innova spelled backwards Perhaps this helps innovA The Das part just came from my usual game of adding such the word to a noun and pawning it off as a German influenced design strong What happened to Das Avonni strong After I had the Das Avonni in my front yard for a couple of days I decided that I would give it to a few of my good friends then roommates of one another a href tags Mike Crockett Mike Crockett a and a href tags Dreux LaViolette Dreux LaViolette a I brought it over to their house and we dug a hole in the ground in which to mount it From what I understand the Avonni was used from time to time in the backyard until they both moved into seperate homes and then I think it was either left there or ultimately dismantled and thrown away a sad fate indeed strong Can I get my own Das Avonni strong Yes The units sell for 2000 each or 25 000 for an 18 hole course and can be hand crafted and delivered to you within 7 business days We require that the monies be transferred into an escrow account before any construction begins If you d like one contact me
The Tunnelweb Spider I had an encounter with a New Zealand Tunnelweb Spider To anyone who knows me it s a well known fact that I am more or less terrified by most anything of the arachnid variety It s entirely an irrational fear this I know but I can t seem to get over it for whatever reason Thankfully I think spiders are about the only things that I am afraid of Of course I also think most anyone would be afraid of a tunnelweb strong The Tunnelweb strong photo 3412 273 0 right A tossed a quarter next to the spider to give it some perspective photo The other day while still living in my flat in Dunedin I strolled into my bathroom or toilet for a quick pee break So far there was nothing unusual about this sudden urge to urinate I began peeing and as I looked down to my left just near the upright shower was a GIANT New Zealand Tunnelweb spider Now that I was in a state of complete terror not to mention mid stream instinct kicked in and I immediately stopped my flow and jumped about 6 feet to my left far far out of harms way Once I calmed down a bit I ran to get my camera and though I usually get pretty close to the subject in my nature pics I kept my distance for this one These were zoom lens all the way I tossed an American Quarter on the ground near the spider to give it some perspective FYI an American Quarter is just under an inch in diameter This spider clearly spawned about 2 25 of them strong A Peaceful Spider strong Is there such a thing Though the Tunnelweb is about the size of a Tarantula like the Tarantula it is not poisonous Don t confuse it s name with the Australian Funnelweb spider The Funnelweb on the other hand is quite deadly Also like our Tarantula however this spider can inflict a very painful bite if provoked to do so If you look between the small front two legs you can see the very large black fangs touching the ground below After this whole encounter with death itself I did a bunch of research on the particular spider Though I had seen them around outside I had not seen one in my bathroom but that is apparently somewhat normal As I read every so often a Tunnelweb spider will find his way into a house and when it does it becomes severely dehydrated usually to the point of death The spider will immediately seek out a source of water with it s sensing tools and this usually lands it either in the bathroom or the laundry room Apparently sometimes they are able to sustain themselves for awhile in the bathroom as they can live off of the leftover humidity from showers and drops of water on the floor Usually though they wither and die pretty quickly This one was obviously somewhat resourceful
The Belicean Border Incident When Dayna came to visit me in Akumal Mexico we thought it would be fun to take a weekend trip to Belize Akumal sits about 180 miles north of the Belician border and is a pretty comfortable ride on any of their major bus services In fact the problem isn t so much getting to the southern border of Mexico it s getting onto another bus service that will take you across Keep in mind that when I was living in Mexico in 1999 it wasn t necessary to travel with a passport In fact I had traveled to Mexico many times with just my driver s license and birth certificate and this summer s trip was no exception Anyway we arrived at the border and crossed the bridge into the border checkpoint The first step of this process is to give up your Mexican visa We did this In a legal sense you re now no longer visiting Mexico but you also haven t technically been granted access to visit Belize yet either We crossed into the country and walked through a very low tech border agency They asked to see our passports and of course we presented them with our driver s license and birth certificates To make this part of the story short they effectively just laughed at us and said they weren t going to let us in I spent some time discussing and eventually arguing with them but they said we would have to go back It didn t look like we d make it past the armed guards either This was obviously very disappointing for us but we headed back towards Mexico to get back into the country Unfortunately and as you may recall reading from above we no longer had Mexican tourist visas Normally this isn t a problem when coming from Belize because you just show your Belicean visa Except we were never issued one due to the whole passport birth certificate misunderstanding So here we were essentially standing on the little Rand McNally line that graces the map s borders of Mexico and Belize and I m now having to discuss with armed Mexican soldiers why I don t have a visa either from Belize or from Mexico Fortunately my Spanish had improved pretty drastically that summer and so after just as few minutes I was able to speak with the person who had taken our visas not twenty minutes earlier He reluctantly shuffled through them and found ours in the mix I honestly can t recall if they issued us new visas or if they just un cancelled our previous one but we were allowed back into Mexico shortly thereafter Of course this is all a moot point these days since you can t get to Mexico any longer without a passport but this is what happened when I tried to go without one
