Weird glass
« on: September 12, 2013, 05:23:09 pm »
This was a slab I had in the shop. My aunt came into town and showed some interest so I went down and pulled this peice out. I found the bubbles pretty cool. Bubbles didn't affect flaking any. My best guess is someone remelted it prior to slabbing.

Thanks Bob. The flake scars don't show up in the pics but for glass they actually she up well in person.

Bill, did you get that slab from me possibly? I had purchased some slag glass form Carl Smith a few years back and slabbed it. I has bubbles in it just like that. Neat stuff and nice point. If I could figure out how to do pics I would post a pic of the one I made from it.

I probably did I don't know for sure. I figured the bibles were from someone remelting it but wasn't sure.
