I used to work in a cemetary also in frozen ontario, Unfortunately people do die in the winter . They had this grave sized rig that was only about oh 2 - 3 feet high with a hole in one end that would fit a fairly large propane blowtorch nozzle with a twenty pound tank you could effectively...
The one I have here seems to be clear 8 1/2 " . If it were amethyst would it be obvious or would it be an idea to put it in some sunlight to bring out the colour.
You are correct it is eclectric - I kind of like that word will incorporate it into my everyday vocabulary some how. " My what an ecletric hairstyle you have Miss" or " I find your opinions on this matter to be quite eclectric"
Would like help in identification on this bottle . Also some education on the process . the only thing resembling a seam here is this gash thing on the neck, it only measuse an inch or 2 long , the only other clues are a pimple on the side and a small round patch on the bottom .

Thanks digger , I must say its fun and quite interesting , I found through some serches of my own tonight that carter's was ink , and I saw a pinex bottle on an Ebay listing although it had the embossed name on the front not the sides as mine does. That Coke bottle has the numbers 51 and 52 on...
