  1. Had to go dig this thread out....Shooter
  2. My newest Vitro Horseshoe shooter
  3. I have always had the good fortune to be home while expecting marbles. At least near by. Still as I check the tracking number 6=8 times a day for updates and wonder if the address is correct, even though it is always the same address that I received marbles at before. The thought of the little orbs losing their way drives me nuts. Then if I am out running errands and get the notification that they were delivered.....sometimes it says, left on your porch! Uhg, they'll be gone by the time I get there! I rush home leaving my errands in a panic to find them in my locked mailbox. lol One of these days I will get a ticket on the way. The only other instance that gets my blood pressure up, is the pending countdown of an auction, whether on ebay or not, as I watch the close the last three or 4 minutes, I start to get sick, sweat, cold sweaty hands, dripping forehead, gut churning feeling week......makes that last bid difficult to type in as I shake. I swear I need to get some meds for panic attacks so I can survive those last few minutes. It does not seem to matter if it is a relatively common marble or a prized HTF marble that I think has went slightly un noticed. And one wonders why I prefer to find my marbles in the wild! lol
  4. Good Eye Ann, I was just scrolling down to post the same thing when I saw you beat me to it. =}
  5. That's a nice looking marble. I like it. I am a sucker for transparency .
  6. Good deal, good to know he is ok.
  7. I rolled a new one in to the stable this weekend. Well, a few, but this one is my favorite. Powder blue to white flames trimmed in light brownish on a medium olive base.
  8. Welcome Bud and welcome back Warren. Warren, I will see you in Seattle and again in Vegas. Just look for the trio of bald guys, usually Galen, me and somehow we always find another. lol
  9. Didn't I send you a killer little 5/8 just like this a couple years back? It took me a while to replace it and I did so with the shooter above. =}
  10. That's as painful looking as the sulphide. Perfectly nice surface and cracked in half. Shakes head.
  11. Sorry, should have added that right off. It is also a 5/8. No hurry.
  12. Great innards everyone! I am glad everyone is having fun with the thread and I am enjoying seeing all the examples, the brick being my favorite! However give Steph some love it was her that gave me the idea.=}
  13. some glitter, not yet sure who made it.
  14. Great Cateye.s everyone. Slowly catching up with missed threads. =}
  15. Thank you. You might be right, I posted this on a FB group and was met with some horror, thinking I purposely did this to the marble. It in fact came to me this way years ago. I have kept it as I do all the wounded. I found myself intrigued about the make up of the figure and also how small the figure actually is vs the size in which the curved glass makes it appear.
