Hey Taz...

Nice work on the tumbling job!![;)] With all the fungus ridden ... coral encrusted... slime covered... barnacle ridden... clam enhabitted... muscle clogged... mud filled... dirt covered... seaweed attached... bottles I find underwater, I should think about putting together a tumbler...[:-] I thought about it before, but I rarely have the time to do it, workin too much!![:(] Anyway, the only free time I have, I spend it underwater bottle hunting.

This winter I will be going through the dozens of boxes I have of bottles and I will be making space![:mad:] I hve to clear out the shelves and make room, so I will be selling off a lot. I'll call you and chat with you about it. I don't want to flood the market and God only knows how many bottles are already out there on Ebay.

I think a lot of people are getting away from Ebay bottle buying... what say you?[8|]

Yes I cleaned that ! I got it from Joel seems he couldn't get the ghosty haze out of it. I backed off on the copper gave her a little xtra H20 and it came into it after 3 days of slow speed..... I believe it is a GXI-34 probally made in Virginia... Any idea on value? I thought of putting it out on fleabay..... Taz
