  1. Yuuumm !! Akroliciouse I really like the pattern on the lemonade on the far right.
  2. Both Pelt rainbo's to me
  3. Made sure, just checked 5/8ths dead on Ric
  4. I musta passed it 100 times, musta been "under cover"......................................a real covert operation !!
  5. At one time it was the only vitro I owned, it sits at the head of the pack right now, I have never seen another like it, the closest to black was the black face helmets. I just started on some Vitro's, an opal, buttermilk , helmets of every color, I lucked out & found someone who wanted to sell so I kinda cherry picked, but I paid what they were worth, so a fair deal.
  6. "Welcome Melinda" Looks like a common newer "Vacor (Mega)" made, either way a newer marble. Of little value, $.50 to $1.00 or less. Anything with that oily or carnival glass looking sheen on the outside is newer, their attempt "I guess" to make the marbles look older. Please post measurements in fractions if possible, i.e. 1/2'" 3/4" 21/32'" etc. or decimals if you like. And many people shy away from posts with links for fear of getting a virus. pics are best. If you need any help posting pics or whatever "Please" ask or go to one of te threads for answers. There are many here more than happy to help you out. "Again Welcome to the Forum" Chad G.
  7. "Thanks Ric" as said I' make no excuses, I will nip this picture thing in the bud before it becomes a habit. Believe it or not the marble is clean, all the gas bubbles are inside with no blowholes clean surface, no pitting, just crummy pics. "It will be fixed"
  8. Very nice Mib Bruce, hard to get one of these bo's with either ox or metalic strips in them anymore
  9. Believe it or not I figured out how to delete the remaining one and the broken registry & replace it. I already forgot, it took a little fiddling but all good now, "Thank you Steph" I caused my own problems. I have more pics but free handed it again making the mib look terrible on top of being out of focus from moving. I'm going to take some good ones with my tripod, remote & shadow box. My hands are numb and it takes forever, but I look at these pictures with disdain knowing I could do twice as good, nice clean & sharp.
  10. Try again Ric I was texting Steph about my double post.
  11. x2, Agree with Ric, Phantom Conqueror.
  12. Best site for Vacor (Mega) marbles there is, "Thanks for the repost Steph" a real timesaver.
  13. I seen this type and the rounded one, in fact I probably looked at every bit they had. Appreciate the advice, will try for sure, I'll just use the same old piece of pine until I find something that works Thanks Bruce, Chad G.
  14. I drilled 2 sets of pilots but for that 7/16ths just not gonna work, way to soft, good thing it was cheap, very nice board Bruce, that thig is exacting. I had a press just not ready to tackle a couple hundred holes and one mistake and it's over. They named the game right "aggravation" I know I'll never use a soft wood again, and yes it looked like I chewed a hole in the wood, take care. Chad
  15. Man, I gotta get over there, we have one in town, thanks for the info Tommy !!
  16. Nice board Bruce yeah buddy, I collect Chinese Checker boards, looks like cedar. My favorites are the old cardboard ones with the killer graphics & of course the wooden one but I also have quite a few tin also. I'll try and get a good bunch together for a pic. I just tried last week to make one for my aunt out of pine, it clogged the bit and screwed up on the first hole, maybe a little harder wood, I have a template and everything, you have to get every exactly right, I even messed up on the aggravation board I tried to make, same story "Pine" I found, is not a good wood to use. ...........
  17. Good grief, I've been duped by a walking sphinx with arthritis !!
  18. "Welcome Dustin" Great to have you, jump right in Brother !! Regards, Chad G.
  19. Them look like untouched mibs, I wants me share Aaarrg !#@$$%&*^%#$%$
  20. Lookin good Brother ........................................................... Are you using a tube or a bulb Tommy ???
  21. Some of the very best friends I have are marble friends, true blue thru & thru. Good times & good friends that will never be forgotten. Great pic Bill !! "Thanks"
  22. Great Brick, hasn't been touched, great tail & drizzle trail, score
  23. One more for the road, a 25/32nds miller burnt spiderman. Not gonna argue with a little pocket ware when it's over 3/4
