the reason i asked is, i'm going to sooner or later give it a go. it's going to be a few years before i feel i'm ready to produce saleable marbles, and i'm going to not quit my day job until it's proven itself to be possible lol.
just the possibility that i may even be able to supplement my income with hot glass work is extremely inspiring.

Justin,
Those are beautiful....and your video is great!!!
What kind of corks do you use? I've been looking for a replacement for the stainless steel ones I've used in the past. They're expensive and I have to glue to marble on.
Thanks.

The corks I used are a food grade #2 with hole. Do a google search for a #2 stopper with hole and you should be able to find some at beer brewing places. They cost anywhere from 30 cents to 75 cents depending on the supplier.

Thanks Justin,
I'm on the hunt for them locally. I've also found a few places to order them from online.
