Thank you to every single one of our donors.  Getting the funding takes a huge weight off our shoulders.  Rest assured, we are working every day to bring these two behemoths into being.  The massive LED plan is moving forward!  And mountains of metal are being cut, sorted, and welded every day!  Please check for updates at oilpunk.com.  And again, we appreciate every contribution.

We are overwhelmed with the support all of our donors have pledged.  The funding now stands at 75%.  Even though we have not reached our funding goal yet, I want to say how humbly I thank you all, I can only say; thank you thank you thank you.

The Serpents are growing and taking shape everyday.. Lots of wonderful friends and new faces showed up to help Sunday and lots got done. Still needing skilled volunteers. Contact me if you have skills in metal fabrication, general fabrication, LED knowledge, soldering, Flash animation of LEDs.  car stereo installation, sewing. For people with no workshop skills – be a gopher for hardware or food runs, help us organize and mail out rewards from our sure-to-be-successful kickstarter so we can keep moving forward… I’m sure I can think of more!

The kickstarter fundraiser is going well but we still need more than $4000 to get our funding! Please tell your friends, spam the world, pitch in a $25. Less than a week left and if we don’t fully fund we lose the $6000 we have already raised!

The head begins to take shape. It looks incredible and I can’t wait to see it filled in with sheet metal.

Tansy and Kyrsten have been working hard to get the fins cut.

    Imagine a night on the town in the East Bay being chauffeured around in a famous art car such as The Golden mean! Maybe you want to go to dinner in style, then arrive at a party as a rock star. You've never had as much attention as you will with your own fire poofing snail. Yes! You could use this for a wedding too! All this and a mention on our website plus reading your name from "The Great Scroll of Thanking" while poofing a fireball.

    A fabulous night on the town in the famous giant iron snail, The Golden Mean, at Burning Man. A party night for you and up to 3 of your friends as we roll with the Serpents! We'll chill some nice Proseco and take you on a chauffeured art tour and beyond -- truly an unforgettable Burning Man experience. All this and a mention on our website plus reading your name from "The Great Scroll of Thanking" while poofing a fireball.
