To Max, Leni, and Sue, thanks for the interest you have shown, I will take each weight you mentioned and try to descibe each one. The first will be the yellow one, yes a good sized weight. http://tinypic.com/4qrara This is made by Gentile Glass Star City West Virginia. This is impressed in the bottom of the weight but couldn't get a picture of the mark and its even hard to see. Another interesting thing about this weight is that it sweats. I remember we had a thread on sweating glass which explained why it does that. Well this is the first one, but work beckons and I will get to the other ones later in the day. Oh and Sue, the blue and yellow blob on top is a frog, I think you will love it. Terry

Enlargements :?: What enlargements :?: :?: :?:
Thanks, Leni, I didn't know the pictures could be enlarged, I thought they just all came out little. :oops: I've investigated :idea: and played a bit with those funny bits that come up on the picture when you leave the mouse on it for long enough, and sure enough, I can get them bigger :!: :!: :!: . 8)
I keep telling everybody I have technophobia, but nobody seems to believe me! :oops: :oops:
Now I can't find the thread with my pictures of the bonbon dish to see how they came out!
Terry, I've seen it big now :D and it looks wonderful. You're right, I LOVE the frog - do you know who made it?
Cheers, Sue.

Hmm...that sounded interesting, so I 'searched' for all permutations of the word 'sweat', and got nothing! :?
Is there a technical term I could search under? :?
