Abstract: A lineal product includes a composite pultruded substrate having a solid outer surface, and a multi-layer coating extruded directly onto the outer surface. The coating comprises a solid extruded base layer comprising a first thermoplastic material extruded onto the outer surface, the base layer having a base-layer inner surface in intimate contact with the outer surface and a base-layer outer interface. The coating further comprises a solid extruded outer layer comprising a second thermoplastic material comprising polymethyl methacrylate extruded onto the first thermoplastic material, the solid extruded outer layer having an outer-layer interface in intimate contact with the base-layer outer interface and an outer-layer outer surface, wherein the intimate contact between the base-layer outer interface and the outer-layer interface forms a solid interface between the base layer and the outer layer. The solid extruded outer layer has a hardness of at least 1H pencil hardness.

Abstract: A game apparatus for use with marbles or the like comprising a unitary housing having substantially parallel upper and lower surfaces, the housing having a plurality of collecting chambers therein, the collecting chambers adapted to cooperate with a plurality of apertures disposed in the first lateral surface of the housing, the apertures permitting the passage of marbles or the like into the collecting chamber; an elongated roller element rotatably secured within an elongated chamber disposed within the housing; apparatus for rotating the elongated roller element; and a substantially rectangular flexible sheet element affixed on a free edge thereof to the roller element, the sheet element adapted to pass through an opening in the housing and extend outwardly toward the apertures and thereinfront thereby serving as a playing surface.
