    Now I can't find it

    Thanks Chris that should work. I have fooled with just expoxy and even made a horses leg with it and plaster. But never been able to hide a crack, I will give it a try, almost had that cruet sold at $375.00 as is. Only thing the lady carried about is it matched her room. Dave

    How old are you ????

    Well If I have to tell then I am older than Harry. and I thought he was old to have so much knowledge. And we can't get bottles as old as all of you as no one came here untill the 1840's. Think Lewis & Clarke got here around 1803 and they probally cast no bottles aside. Okay I am 63 Dave

    Creomulsion?

    Read a story once that said bottles were dug out of San Fran Bay (some kind of mudflat) and because of the chemical effect of this certain kind of mud the bottles turned to look almost opal. That the color made them more valuable, but most bottles dug are sick glass and not very nice to look at...

    MacNAughton's whisky bottle

    Deana, McNaughton's was still being made in Canada when I was up there a couple of years ago. Canada used to fly the Union Jack before changing to the Maple Leaf.
