Post by: Bloopy on July 25, 2018, 04:35 AM: There's a place in New Zealand called Goose Bay where people used to stack stones, although I guess they stopped at some point based on Google images now. This was my crappy addition when I was 13. I put my real name on it, haha. And a picture of Bloopy from a few years before I adopted that as my own nickname:

Post by: Husk on July 25, 2018, 12:23 PM: ahhh that must have been cool experience to visit such place with stacks made by visitors, i guess Finland has such place in Lahti, if i visit it i'll make some cool stack there for sure

also ur stack is nice bloopy, i like the small stone chilling at the top

considering u were a kid when u made that, i'd say u r a natural, you would make awesome stuff today

i made this one yesterday:

Title: Re: stone stacking
Post by: Husk on July 26, 2018, 03:38 AM: yeah the pic makes it look like it could, but in real life if u see it it's completely safe
Title: Re: stone stacking
Post by: Husk on July 26, 2018, 05:00 AM: ae bloop thanks for the heads up, valuable lesson. i'd rather learn it before any accidents so thanks

on my way to shop i put the stone on ground level so it wont be falling to anyone's head

i'm gonna start a habit of always dissambeling my stacks after a good picture

better to be safe than sorry

soooo what do u think of the pic bloop, it took me like 1 hour trying to balance it there xD just sit there on edge and turning it a bit back and forth and leaving it leaning on the side with less weigh, while i was sitting there i doubted myself alot thinking "i picked too huge of a rock, shuda picked smaller one", so yeah i am glad with the result
Title: Re: stone stacking
Post by: Bloopy on July 27, 2018, 02:38 AM: Ah so it took an hour, now it makes sense. That's a nice dedicated effort!

I'm sure most of your stacks are safe enough, unless you have a habit of making them 5ft tall or on cliff edges. :-X
Title: Re: stone stacking
Post by: Husk on July 29, 2018, 06:22 PM: yeah they are, and yeah no habit. i did look at spots at ground level first but there weren't many good rocks in that area except in the forest... and i get nervous sitting in a forest for 1 hour focusing on a stack, what if a snake comes and i don't notice it or some shit lol, so i rather sit on a spot that has human acitivity

Post by: Bloopy on July 30, 2018, 08:32 AM: Funny you should mention creatures interrupting stone stacking. We don't have any snakes in NZ, but the place Goose Bay I mentioned is known for sleepy grumps that'll growl at you if you get too close: https://goo.gl/maps/U4L7JXNjsmE2

And made a human pyramid, would that count? :)

Nice stacks Husk, actually inspire me to try this myself, next time it's a beautiful day with no wind and i'm feeling patient enough i'll cycle up the river and try some stream stacking :D

Post by: Sensei on August 05, 2018, 04:55 PM: I don't see any harm with ppl stacking stones.. But on the other hand, there's not much sense or creativity either haha. It's a pile of random rocks, guys...

EDIT: just saw that clip bloopy posted. And yeah, that shit looks cool. Was talking about "artworks" you ppl posted in thread..

Post by: Husk on September 07, 2018, 07:58 AM: yeah i think the facebook post is some depressed single woman over her 30s, she can stay in home eating icecream and watch re-runs of the friends while others create something beautiful xD

well on another look at that post, i guess she is just mad at other ppl for some reason, she do her thing
