Bob, doing good here. Im still working on your order. Those small ones take a long time and are the hardest to tumble. Ill send you a few pics when I get a chance. Take care for now brother

Wilkie, just a polish takes off most ground stain. A Cut and polish takes out light scratches, ground stain, and ground etching. For that bottle you have pictured, it would look great cut and polished. Thanks

Ry,,got the info.Looking forward to doing business with you!I'll be sending SHARON alone on this trip(With a ton of insurance)sometime next week(Tue.or Wed.) been trying to find someone around here to do the work.Bottle collectors are far and few around here.I gotta tell you guys how lucky you are to live in a place with alot of history,and good places to dig!I been diggen holes in mother for 32yrs(I do concrete)'Bout the oldest stuff is late1800'sMostly I buy.I actually found SHARON at a yard sale.Poor guy was gettin rid of all his stuff cus his wife was gonna divorce him if he didn't!Shoot,  I spent 1,100 in two days cus I felt bad for the guy.People were offering him peanuts for high dollar stuff and his wife would make him take it.She kept saying"get rid of this stuff I want it gone"When I was leaving,he came up to me ,thanked me ,and said"here you can have this,I know you'll enjoy it"I guess when a bottle survives this long,it finds a way to stay safe.Any way,  I think now that I came outta my cave and joined the computer age I'll learn how to do research and find some places to dig in So. Cal.Thanks

Can a bottle this small be tumbled?  On the back side of the neck, there is a line which could be from the manufacturing process or it could be a crack, I can't tell.  If it is a crack, is it safe to tumble?  this is a very rare bottle and I'll probably never see another in my lifetime.  It is very sick though and I'd sure like to clean it up.  I've tried muriatic acid for a few weeks with no luck.

Hey bud,  Yes a small bottle like that can be tumbled but I dont like to do tiny bottles for one thing and another it would be very risky with a crack in the neck. If I were you I wouldnt get it tumbled if its a really rare bottle. Take care

Thanks.  I won't risk it then.  I had a small medicine once before with a crack and I took a dremmel tool to it to polish the stains off (so I'd hoped) and the crack quickly trippled in lenght. Didn't know if tumbling would be safe or not but I'll take your word that it isn't, I trust your expertise.

Hey Ry,I certainly feel that your prices are fair,and am looking to send more your way.Ever since I went to my first bottle show and saw aworking bottle tumbler,I thought,"I gotta have me one of those!"You see,I build stuff,so buying something I could make is against my religion.So......#156 on my list to do.Three years later,#156 grew feet and keeps eluding me!I'll get there,But until then,It's me and you and postage.Glad I found you!One more thing,I needed to make sure I gave you the correct return address--It's12040 First.Sometimes I get numbers turned around,just making sure.Thanks,have a good week.
