  1. Here are some favorite slags and freinds
  2. I still collect Peltiers when I can find them,great marbles everyone.
  3. Sissydear I agree,for many years my favorite marbles were Peltier but now have found a new passion for Vitro's and BIG slags.I recently got a group of 32 Vitro's multicolored with aventurine.I just love em.Your Sweet Peas and Black-eyed peas are some of my favorites.The Vitro colors are very vibrant just outstanding! I don't think there lowly anymore.
  4. What beautiful Vitro's you have,many I've never seen.Thanks for posting
  5. This is the rock I had in mind when I made my guess,measures 1-1/2".I can see now the colors are reversed,more blue than white.I wouldn't be too dissapointed with the lot,in my opinion all these real vintage "MINT" marbles will have value in the near future if not sooner.Good hunting
  6. Looks like you got alot of nice Vitro's,the ones in the same bag. Score! I think ther Vitro's
  7. Nice group! is that a large dyed agate I see in pic 3 ? Any big slags in there,maybe a red one? great stuff
  8. No not mine,wouldn't mind if they were but does the name exotic alone suggest they are from somewhere else?Just being mysterious.I have one stripped opaque exotic but can't post pics at this time.edit, I had a pic in photo bucket
  9. I think alot of people here are interested in cats-eyes,I know I am.Ex-specially anything in colored glass.Here are some better pics.Windex blue would be a good discription of the color.I like the green alot,not vaseline looking at all.Not trading these but you have good pics of what you are looking for.
  10. Yes,I had to wear her down just to get a picture.I took eight pics and this is the only one were she is not a blurr.She is a mutt also,they were adopting out about a dozen kittens and she is exactly what Judy has been waiting for.Didn't know most orange cats are males,so this little girl was a rare find I am told.I learned quit a bit at the cat show about different breeds Bengals,Oriental shorthairs,siamese and so on.Some of these cats ther're breeding now are huge! Also learned my cat Bongo is a Norwiegen forest cat,can you imagine that.She does have the Bengal markings but a little fluffy.
  11. Went to our first Cat show yesterday and couldn't come home empty handed.Her name is Daisy and she is three months old,she is soooo sweet.
  12. Don't worry bout the house payment! Great marbles! WOOOW !
  13. I need to look and see what brand and size my kiln is but I can tell you it's got three sections,it's 230V single phase.I use it for pre-heating and slow cooling cast iron weld repairs.I haven't used it for awhile though it's fully functional and ready to go.It's about four feet tall.Maybe you should come up to Sparks and give me a lesson.I have a torch I use to cut steel with.Once again that's a beautiful slag,can't believe you did it last night!Very nice.
  14. Thats' a beauty Rich,you made that with moretti glass and a torch?Guess you could get other colors too.7/8" is as big as you can go or can you make them bigger,say 1-1/4"?Very nice work!how big is your kiln,I have one of my own I rarley use.
  15. I think I have five ringer corkscrews but the big one is not a corkscrew it has several seams,four, maybe triple ingot....ringer..swirl? None are flourecsent big one is one inch.
  16. Honeybern does have some ugly marbles!!!.....,I want.And I was inspired to look up the word f'shizzle.But we all gotta get along or at least try and he/she might need to take a little time out and enjoy that Palm city weather,hot place I've been there.Bye the way how is Grams feeling?Hope your surgery helped.You haven't asked for my advice but I feel compelled to tell you what my doctor told me,he said "Just be nice!" best advice I've ever had.You started out OK but snowballed out of control,as you knew you would.Just being honest with you freind.We all love marbles here but they can cause major obsessive compulsive problems.Proceed with care as if you were walking in a pasture full of fresh cow s**t.Good luck and good day,Bo Uh-oh got this on the wrong thread,my gosh so many of them.It was to be in the who is honeybern,started by honeybern.......
  17. I like them all! Very nice assortment handmade and machine made.
