A Gonk With A Purpose

See how I came to be friends with Magnus Brewerson, defender of beer. A Viking gonk with a hidden stainless steel bottle stopper lurking inside ready to decapitate your chilled beverages. Anything with a crown cap claiming royal heritage he will have it's crown in an instant as any Viking invader would.

Thanks for giving the various dimensions as you go. It is very helpful.

@prokraftuk Жыл бұрын

Always check the kit dimensions first as specifications can change and we cannot do a new video for minor spec changes.

Hi Jon, I do believe I have a couple of these, that I haven't used yet, and what a great adaptation for it. Brilliant Jon. Take care. Cheers, Huw

He looks great. He could be used as a pencil holder too.

Never heard the term "Gonk". I love it

It was originally a 1960's furry toy designed in London but has gone on to mean a little furry gnome-like figure.

Definitely agree that things need some purpose. Having said that I'm thinking small gonks on a chain for key rings or handbag decorations. Any thoughts on that Jon?

This little fella is about 120mm tall and I found it quite fiddly - best of luck with a keyring! Or maybe make a big keyring and drive a Unimog!

That is one cute little guy. I have just one thing I want to add though. I have seen way too much violence in my lifetime and when I originally saw the sword and spear...I was reminded of a battle field. I'm sure others felt the same. That's probably not a plus.

How old are you that when you see a sword or spear your 1st thought is a battlefield and not World of Warcraft or Ever Quest ? Or Brave Heart, I mean, the Japanese used swords on rare occasion in WW2 as a last ditch effort, my Grandpa shared those stories with me but to be a world war 2 vet you would have to be nearly if not pushing past 100
