  1. A few, I treasure these mibs above all the rest, given as gifts by people who consider me a friend and thought enough of me to send a little surprise. These will never leave my collection at any price !! The beat up blue slag was given to me when I was 10 years old by my Mother, my first marble, kept on a high-rise acrylic stand in a special place on the top shelf of my best curio. I have many, many Jabo's all given to me by a very good friend, all hand picked as the best they had, first ones I ever had all came as gifts, some fantastic people, among the best and closest friends I have, "Marble Friends are the Best Friends"

  3. Some Mt. St. Helens stuff, your piece is original and real. I was just up on the mountain Saturday and stopped by the gift shop, I was gonna get ya something but not at the prices they want. The cup you have is probably $25.00. Here are a few pix of some I have bought at yard sales. An ash ware incense burner & some glass lamps all made with Mt. St. Helens ash. Incense burner $40.00, this is fired & glazed clay from the mountain just like the cup you have. The glass oil lamps, glass is made from or contains ash from the mountain. Bottom of the fired incense burner. cougar is a town on the way up to the mountain famous for all the Bigfoot sightings. The bottoms of the glass lamps, along with a group shot I have more but these are the best pieces, the incense burner is about as big as my fist. the biggest one they had at the gift shop, I was surprised to see they still made it , although the newer pieces don't say Cougar WA. on the bottom.
  4. Nice agates man, you could make some killer mibs, pendants, artifacts lots to do with quality stuff. Can you do any wooden marble box engraving work with that CNC machine ??
  5. MARBLE ON BROTHERS & SISTERS !!
  6. "Not sure Rick" Jabo made so many runs I can't even begin to keep track, hard for me to fathom, I have enough trouble just with Akro or Pelt names, you gotta be a rocket scientist to keep up with all the name changing !!
  7. Have you tried any wooden marble boxes yet !! I've been looking for a good cnc operator to do some work on my exotic mib boxes i.e. label Akro, Peltier w/the logos etc. ?? I don't have any templates but I bet if you posted for then they would pop up quickly !!
  8. ????????? I think D.A.S. is "Dave's Appalachian Swirls ?? (Maybe ?? ) I really have no idea, truly does sound German to me also, guess we'll find out here shortly ??
  9. Both Jabo, probably near 3/4ths, green & silver colored aventurine are both present in the first one. "Nice" I like Jabo's !!
  10. No. 1 with a man you gotta stop, either that or get me some oxygen !! .......... Pffhhh !! ............ tire ............ yard
  11. "Green skin".... "huge muscles"......"Where marble"......"William Smash" ...... .......You're killin me man ...... I'm so glad to be a part of this forum !! That made my day "Priceless"
  12. " Hello Jim" "Welcome to Marble Connection" I see a Christensen swirl here, no Peltier. This one I see Jabo, can't specify the run though !! "Again Welcome " many knowledgeable people here more than willing to share what they know & always a learning process as more provenance is revealed. Have fun Jim Thanks for posting, good to break the ice with a few pix !! A size ( Preferably in inch fractions) i.e., 5/8ths, 3/4ths etc... is always a plus when trying to I.D. marbles. The search bar here can also be an excellent tool here when trying to research your marble related queries, anything questions you have please post, more than likely someone will have the exact answer you're looking for.
  13. So good to put a face to the name Gina, you're smile is infectious, thank you for posting, my ugly mug can also be found here on this thread somewhere !! Ah yes I backtracked a bit & looked, a family shot with me the towering behemoth standing in the middle
  14. Nice bunch William, I really like the transparent ones even if common just something I like.
  15. WOW man, those first two pics are gigantic !! Ah there're clear so I'll leave em. no glasses needed here (I hope )
  16. "HAPPY PELTIER TUESDAY" Staying with the Rainbo theme with a couple big uns !!
