Screw Carpal Tunnel ! No more pain and I can sleep. Dexterity isn’t the best. I don’t know how she broke that. I hope they didn’t have to use screws or pins.

Peltier! size .58..... never saw one this before
Fire1981 replied to Gladys's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Of course ! Man I’m rusty. I’m lucky enough to have one of those. It’s more of a cross-thru…no swirl. Can’t wait to unpack and get pics of my Mibs. -
So true Pinks are 1 inch ? “nearly made it”

I have one with a Sloppy Lobster Tail. If you have some could you post them. They are flat out my favorite MK. I’m still looking for a Naked one.

Ruby Slippers are truly one of my favorites. Here’s my question. What other Pelts have red transparent bass glass other then their slags ? I’m stumped. I can’t think of any other examples. Anyone know of one ? -

I’m lucky enough to have a few of these. I found mine in The Wild. It was “That Jar” I saw one of these in there and ended up with 3. Couldn’t get home fast enough with a True Quart jar of marbles for $10. Keepers -
WOW ! Your collection is just chug’n along there. Marble MoJo for sure.

Would you call it a multi-colored slag because there is more colors other the just white ? -

Vitro FWIW. Backlight it. Probably veneered with cool matrix. Looks like Vitro Lavender -

Awesome example of the Pelt Flip Flop -
2X Vitro and a good one 👍

Messed up Pelt. Lots of kiln brick in the Matrix FWIW

It’s all about the sand. Sand from the rivers made a difference in base glass and more for every factory. Sounds like a lab project and a microscope to get down to the nitty gritty on this one.

Big Bang Theory with a twisted up marble thrown into the mix ? Long Beach on the South Shores of Lake Michigan has white sand. If you drag your feet or toes through it makes a sound like a harp. It’s the only beach that has this sand. I bet it would make some good marbles.

👍

Marbles are basically made out of sand.

A round rock doesn’t have the matrix a glass sphere will have.

I'd say Jabo on the left. Maybe a long shot of a CAC on the second one.

I would say Virto. Is that AV in the ribbons ?

Fish’n with my Dad ! I miss fishing in the Midwest. We went elk hunting out here in 2017 when he was 78. We saw a bull moose with a cow and 2 calfs everyday. He said he was getting old. I told him “ I know younger men older then you”. My Dad is one of my Other Interests.

Used to play hockey outdoors in St.Cloud,Buffalo Lake and St.Johns Minnesota. It wasn't a matter of being cold. The problem was it got dark.

121 in British Columbia. I lived in Tuscon for 6 years and expected it to be hot. I moved back to Colorado 15 years ago. Thin blood for sure. Now I wear long john here when it's 40 degrees. Pretty wimpy. But I don't carry. It was funny seeing people break out their Winter clothing in Tucson when it was in the 60's. Seriously.
-
I always thought being a Meteorologist in Tuscon would be one the easiest jobs out there. Hot and sunny 102-106 degrees for the next 3 months. Clear and Sunny for the next 16 months.

The 3rd from the left might be a Pop-Eye as well.
