2ND EXECI inherited a bunch old really cool looking very old Glass house fuses.
They are glass and made by companys like G.E. - SNAPIT -Eagle.
Other than setting them up on fence post for long range .22 rifle practice, do you guys think they are worth eBaying?
Any info would be great!

Glass fuses are still sold today and probably wouldn't do too well on eBay.

I like the idea of using them for target practice, though.[:D]

Yeah, cool idea. I've got a pretty good shot with an open sight .22. Picked off a woodchuck at 150 yards. [;)]

Hehe, I had the feeling they would make good plinkers.
Off to the farm they go!
150 Yards, Iron sights= good shot!

I don't know guys. With all that other crap selling pretty well on ebay, maybe he should throw it on there. The trick must be to put a high starting bid on it and tell everyone how rare it is today to see a home using "antique glass " fuses.

Uh....guys?....ummm...I like plinkin with a .22 as much as anyone...but I can't help thinkin about all the glass insulators I've seen broken 'cause people used to plink at 'em with .22's.

You sure sure you wanna do this? Just a thought...
