Anyone here collect Vaseline Glass ?

Apr 25, 2006 22 Replies

I'm just starting to collect this glass and would like to chat with others.



Thanks


Maybe msn.forums.collectibles.glass.depression ?

didn't the word "crafts" in the group name give you even a little bit of a clue?

The charter is posted at least monthly, use your google.

Isn't Vaseline Uranium glass a 'craft' then ?

It's here on the 1st and 16th of the month. If your news server really doesn't have 15 days retention, you can find it anytime at

The newsgroup rec.crafts.glass was created primarily for the purpose of discussion related to working with glass.

well that covers me. I want to collect and sell it, so that's working with glass as far as work means.

techniques - materials - safety - business issues

That covers me as well as I have an interest in the making of it, the materials used, Business see above.

Thanks

You are gonna need a wet belt sander to remove all the devitrification off that old uranium glass.

More interested in the porosity of the glass and what would make a good cleaning fluid.

White vinegar for stains, mild baby soap for general cleaning.

Ah yes, another f'in troll, not enough of these buttheads to go around are there.

No. Working with glass means creating something with glass, or creating the glass itself.

Hey, discuss the collecting of vaseline glass all you want. It's not like there's any real prohibition against off-topic discussions. They happen all the time.

My point was merely that msn.forums.collectibles.glass.depression might yield more productive and rewarding discussion since you specifically talk about collecting, and that group has both collectible and glass in its name.

Oh, no! Not the wet belt sander again!!! LOL

Fifth grade was the toughest 3 years of yer life, wasn't it?

Yeah, well. I figured that maybe we could hook a couple of mental midgets up and Borg and Brady could pontificate to each other to their heart's content.

Very witty, you've done this before.
