I received some marbles a few years back..........I noticed that these were homemade-Liking them!!!! I think "Snuffy" gave them to me-Thanks buddy-sorry I didn't investigate the whole bag of marbles in the past..... I'm going to display all the marbles and pulled these out for separate display...Thumbs up

Awesome! When I was on the CFMS fieldtrip to Stone Canyon, one of the fellers said, want to see my rock collection and pulled a pouch out of his jacket pocket. All stone marbles! I thought that was an excellent idea for a collection and portable too. I like marbles....Mel

I like the idea of a portable collection, Sabre52! Awesome machine, jakesrocks! Is that ruby/corundum on the far left in the cup? Or garnet?

That's just a little one Mike. It's sitting on a TV tray table. Doesn't take up much room.

There is a way to tell if you are a rock hound just by using marbles. When you go out in the morning take a pocket full of marbles. Whenever you pick up a rock you have to drop a marble. When you've lost all your marbles then you're a rockhound.
