Why are the two giraffe
heads in the water and
not sticking up from the
ark like in cute pictures
we're used to?

Because they are evil
ones left behind.
Oppenauer Ark detail
The Ark is a solid chunk
of wood with a slight
door imprint on the centre
front. The one window is
in the back and can only
be seen with a mirror.
Oppenauer Ark in the making
Mouse over image will
show a more realistic
shape. 1 cubit = 1 mm
Even if we don't know
exactly what a cubit is we
do have the dimensions.
300 long X 50 wide X 30
high. In the mouse over
picture the ark is lying on
top of the water.
These thumbnails are to
show that when Rob
Oppenauer builds
something it will last.
Notice  the dowels and
drilled holes just to hold
the Ark in place.
