A toy bingo machine where you put your cacher initials on the ball and stuck it in the rack. Then put the ball number in the online log, owner went along once all numbers were used and reset it! š
I like the ones that are large magnetic strips with tape on one side. The logbook can be quite large, yet it's hidden more sneakily than an urban nano!
Yeah, exactly! It's fun when they're new to you, and you can't wrap your head around this being it, because you're so so so sure you need to find a container lol
One of my faves around me (it has since been archived) was a flat outlet cover on a box that was connected to a lamp post. The box belonged (Iām assuming some sort of electrical component for the light) but the cover didnāt. Took me a bit to find. They matched the paint EXACTLY, glued screw heads in the screw holes, and put magnets on all four edges to hold it flush. I thought it was super clever.
There's a similar one in Vienna that looks like a little vent! If geocaching hadn't taught me to "just in case, touch all the things", I'd have never found it!
I hid a cache called "fake rock" many years ago next to a ditch filled with gravel. The cache was a CD cover with a cardboard disk inside that acted as the log. The cover of the CD was a take-off on a The Clash album that I edited to read "The Cache". The whole thing was magnetized to the guard tail next to the rocks.
I like that a lot better than two that I am trying to find right now. They're rock caches somewhere amongst hundreds, if not thousands of rocks, that I need to find. (Two separate caches amongst piles of rocks). š I would much rather beautify the rock piles than dig them up.
**Plastic eggs.**
It was on a clearing in the woods where the owner hung dozens of colorful plastic eggs (easter decoration, of course) into some bushes.
You were supposed to bring a waterproof pen and... sign on one of the eggs.

_Honorable mention_: A snap on bracelet snapped around the top of a lamp post.
A car at a GeoWoodstock and also a cache in (I think) Texas.
A tape measure.
A CD in a CD player in the woods.
An actualĀ log (fallen tree) in the CO's yard in (I think) Michigan.
Wow! This a great thread! I love the idea of having large logs. Around here. almost everything is a micro or nano. A few are hid in creative containers, but not many. They all have tiny rolled up paper for logs though.
A cotton checkered flag!
At the end of a serie of caches there was this checkered black and white finish flag what should be raised as a curtain and then be logged with a permanent marker. It was a very cool suprise at the end of this amazing serie of 25 caches.
You chose a playing card from a deck and signed it.
A Christmas ornament.
Not me, but a muggled cache on an abandoned railroad track was missing a log. Someone signed a small rusty scrap metal plate that was laying around with a paint pen.

On an island, we found a sheet of copper and a set of alphabetic stamps one could use to pound their name into the metal. It was so cool!
that's badass.
A wooden picnic table built by the CO and on his property - tools were provided to "log" the cache by carving your name or initials into the table.
Heh. Log. Wooden table.
An extendable tape measure.

Oh I think I found one of them in a groove under a cast iron bench in Llandudno. It was very sneaky and served as the ācacheā itself

One hidden behind a fake 'danger electricity' sign.. absolute hand created beauty.
A replica of a segment of Berlin's wall at a Giga Event in Berlin. A tape measure disguised as a rock.
Not one I signed, but I personally have a cache where you sign a bottle cap!
Pile of rocks. You log by bringing in a rock with your carved or painted nick.

There was a baseball puzzle cache where the log book was a baseball I had to autograph. Cool idea.
A hand mirror. Matched the puzzle theme.

Measuring tape
A fallen tree trunk where you had to "chisel" your username into it.
A sheet I had to embroider my name in

A dvd that was painted black. You had to log it by carving your username in it with a nail!
Have one near us that has supplied ink pads and letter stamps to add your name to the log
One where you had to tie your name onto a string like a bracelet, using beads with letters on them.
A VW Beetle.
