o.k. ... well, would the term slag fit with the base being clear .. opaque .. and, as mike said, transparent ?? and, on the slag glass .. with the quanity of slags made, there would have to be 1 heck of a pile of " secondary" glass available. for all the co.'s that did slags. was ingrediants that expensive during the time frame of slags ?? hmm. .. the books, all of them, don't pin down specifics of the slag. generalities ... comments please. thanks. bill

without too much referancing past " opinions" in the books .. what is the defination of a machine- made slag ... not handgathered, .. machine .. and .. what glass was used in the process ? " slag glass" you say just a thought .. slag, to me, refers to what floats to the top. this " refuse" was used to make the marbles ??? i don't think so .. second part .. peltier slags " usually" are i.d. using the feathers as an indicator .. what about the 1's that don't feather ?? swirls ?? for me, i'm gonna stop reading so much ... bill
