Found a few of these today in a 2nd hand store , paid 1 dollar for all The one who tried to make these is a dutch guy who invented the Flippo's He invested millions to build a marble factory in asia and tried to make these It was not easy by the look of these The factory flooded also and this plan was an epic fail Here you can see the Catastrofe ow ow ow ow ๐ง๐ฅด๐

Bought some clay , different colors I roll the colors i pick into a cane Then twist em , roll em and twist till i get a certain pattern Then i roll the colorful cane i made around a glas marble , adds a nice weight to it so it feels good in hand and not to light I model the clay and the it goes into the oven when i am satified of the pattern i see on the marble If not i just take it off and reroll again till i am satisfied When in the oven for 30 min at 100 degrees Celsius its done Let it cool off and then you can start sanding it with diffent sandpapers , i do it under water so i have no dust flying around Then a final coating i apply to make it shine almost like glass Think a few turned out nice and working and trying different things every day now I like it ๐๐ #1 and #2 fresh made , not baked yet #3 before ( fresh baked )and after ( sanding and a coating ) #3 , 4 , 5 Fresh baked , need to finish those , think the will be great ๐คนโโ๏ธ Green Yellow Black ....Cheeseheads ๐๐....Handmade โ Size 1.26 inch
