  1. I don’t know how Ray Laubs pulled this off. He salvaged some scrap Tiffany glass and made these. Pretty crazy huh ? 🔥 RAR
  2. I think this is a good example showing how red ends up getting burned. I still don’t understand how or why the red ends up being burnt. Does it happen on the rollers or before it hits the rollers. Oxblood is a separate formula right. It’s not really Oxblood unless it was meant to be just that. Any ideas🔥 RAR
  3. I need bigger pockets 🔥 RAR
  4. In the pocket with a token coin it goes🔥 RAR
  5. That’s the only place it shows up🔥 RAR
  6. So ! Does anyone have any ideas? Messed up Akro or ???? 🔥 RAR
  7. OK! I guess “feels like” was a total train wreck. 🔥 RAR
  8. I guess I’ll spin this and say it tastes like an Akro. If you think about a Lifesaver I doubt you are thinking about the token Man Overboard doughnut they throw you. 🔥 RAR
  9. I can’t differentiate 100% of the time. I just chase the marble around in my fingers and see if the surface texture makes a difference in the ID. Kinda like big European Sparklers. There just something about the surface glass that would separate them from a greasy contemporary of the same size. 🔥 RAR
  10. I think maybe it’s like having a handmade in hand and a machine made in the other. So I’m looking at the color combo and the flow of the surface glass and it’s texture. Some opaque marbles feel like chalk to me🔥 RAR
  11. I’m sure Ron would know this one🔥 RAR
  12. Vacor Orange Peel in hand and a faceted agate in the other would be easy. Jabo soft glass with the little white specks would be easy for me to feel. It would be fun to do a Blind glass in hand test. 🔥 RAR
  13. Thanks guys ! All of the above are made in Ohio. Or are Leightons made in Germany🔥 RAR
  14. It feels like Akro glass🔥 RAR
  15. Yep ! Old glass for sure 🔥 RAR
  16. I wonder how close you get to the factory? All I can remember is it was in Guadalajara. Road Trip 🔥 RAR
  17. Kinda weird to find a Vacor that’s a reject in the wild 🔥 RAR
  18. My gut says Vitro 🔥 RAR

    Save it

    OK ! Go with me on this one. This a 1 incher Shooter. I think there’s enough of this marble that there’s a chance of getting an ID in it. Whatta think 🔥 RAR
  20. Big lazy 9 and a single pontil. Any ideas on this one 🔥 RAR
