  1. Here's a couple of home made caches for urban environments I just finished and haven't released into the wild yet. Not sure if the idea has been done before or not, but this is my interpretation. Cache #1: This is a nano cache - it has a rolled up log only. From the top you see: Turn it over and you see this: Unscrew the brass piece to see this: Here's a close up of the log. Note the wooden toothpick piece that is used to wrap the log around and to help with extracting the log: The screw piece, bolts and washers are epoxyed together and the brass fitting is epoxyed into the washer so it should be reasonably waterproof once the brass end plug is screwed in place. We'll have to see. The plan is to set this cache on a light pole, etc, that has similar screws (though not necessarily the same size.) The cache won't be attached, it will just sit there. I'm hoping just the weight of it will keep it in place. If not, I've thought about possibly hollowing out some space for a couple of magnets on the bottom... Cache #2: This is a micro cache - about the size of a 35mm film canister. (In fact I epoxyed the bottom of a film canister to the bottom of pipe to seal the cache...) Closed: Open the top and see: These are my first attempts at home made caches and I was trying to come up with something that could sit in the open and yet not be noticed by casual passersby. Comments and critique welcome. Thanks!
