.Sue. so many of my marbles are experments. I like doing that because I know I can't do it twice. kinda like a kilidascope. I made one one time. it wasn't finished. my wife called me to come eat. I left it on the punti. put it in the kiln and went to eat. when I came back to work on it. I loved the colors in it so much I made a pendent out of it for myself. All the color rods were still in front of the torch that I used to make it. I couldn't come close to doing it again. makes a big differance just what colors I laid on first, second and so on. plus the temp of the flame on the torch. it would have been easier to give birth to an elephant! But then.... Thats what I like about making marbles.each and everyone one is different. I did try making 2 marbles off the same cane once. the colors were somewhat there. but to look at them you would never guess they came from the same pull! Pauline has one I made that I have been trying to do for the last 4 years. I do remember just how I did it. but can't come close to doing it again. I guess being one of a kind is the way to go. see you at berts. Thanks
