Georgia Guidestones damaged by vandals

The Georgia Guidestones were vandalized by an explosion that destroyed one of the panels and the rest had to be knocked down because of safety concerns.

Many years ago FRD made a paper model of the structure. Georgia guide Stones

Oh man!, I'm so sorry to hear this!, Marji would be, "rolling over in her grave"!


Chris might still have the model, it isn't published, it was a freebee, maybe I'll see if I can find a copy to publish as I think it was one of the things that i lost in the Hack...


It reminds me of the crowd that spray painted, "NO MORE HISTORY" on the face the the Oregon Historical Society.

Thanks for the info Doug-

Okay, I've searched from top to bottom, I don't have a copy of this model, it must have been lost in the hack.


IF anyone has a copy, please let me know or upload it to the downloads section so I can get a copy for posterity.


In the meanwhile I'll contact Chris and see if he still has a copy.

I have the same problem. The external HD that my copy was stored on crapped out so nothing was able to be recovered.
Here is the thread with my build of the model in 2014:

I also had everything backed up on CD but when Marji died two years ago I was, "cleaning house" and threw all of the CD's away.

What is, "suspicious" is that, rather than cordoning the site off and conducting a thorough investigation, it was bulldozed within hours instead destroying any potential evidence.... (the mystery continues!)

Miles, it is only down temporarily for revising the posting, it will be back up in the next day or so, it won't be free and it will be pimped on social media, there is absolutely no incentive for me to post it for free, that was made clear, it was inadvertantly posted anyway, that's just one reason that it was INSTANTLY taken down.

Simply a matter of, "miscommunication" between multiple parties but we've got it all straightened out now, your patience is greatly appreciated.

I'll post it here as soon as it is again available.

Marji

I've only got this one photo of Marji with the Guide Stones back in 2014, I had a lot more but can't seem to find them, I think they got lost in the 2019 Hack..

2022 Commemorative edition

Okay, I finally got the model re-issued, with several notable inclusions.


This is the, "commemorative edition" it is not only to commemorate the Guide Stones but Marji's contribution as well.


Another notable inclusion is that this Model now carries a small, nominal fee, 80% of which will go to Marji's favorite charity, (me)


Being probably the only remaining, 3D depiction available, If you should stumble across a comment able article then feel free to paste a link.


It can be found here->
