Stefan Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 I finally have my own Display Cabinet so the marbles dont have to be on the window ledge anymore :-) BTW: What do you use as marble stands? I have plastic curtain rings for the big ones and i cut down a plastic tube for the small ones. Those dont look very good i have to find something different....

sissydear Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 You might try a rock shop for marble stands. They sell stands for mineral specimens that are clear plastic and I like them for marbles. They come in various sizes. They are cylindrical, not cone shaped.

Greatmacscott Posted February 28, 2014 Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 I use rubber hose washers and O rings from the hardware store. Fairly inexpensive and the rubber O rings are less likely to move around on glass shelves. the are available in different sizes so even the smallest marble can be displayed nicely.

kbobam Posted February 28, 2014 Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 Whoops. Someone beat me to the rubber o-rings. A small half-inch one gives you a very subtle look with larger marbles, and is surprisingly stable. ( : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
