Dug a rare colored coal region squat!
I got a chance to visit and dig with Tom over the weekend and was able to see that squat Deegan, and it's in prefect condition and beautiful! Awesome yellow color, nicest find I've seen in a while! Tom, it was very generous of you to let Brett have it! Jay- BDD

Any advice on building a tripod setup
Thanks Chris, that's exactly what I'm looking for. That top piece looks heavy duty! A couple of questions: Are the legs one single piece, and what keeps them from spreading too far? Do they stay pretty well if you just jab them into the ground? Jay- BDD

Any advice on building a tripod setup
I'm planning on building a bucket pulling tripod setup, I'm wondering if any of the members have any advice on a good design, or maybe someone could post a close-up pic of their tripod, any info or ideas would be much appreciated! Thanks, Jay- BDD

Archaeologists -vs- Marine Salvage
Just another attempt by archaeologists to make salvage of anything old an immoral act. The argument that we "don't know" what shipboard life was like in those days and they need to study sunken wrecks to find out is just plain silly. It's the same with 19th century privies. We have a good...- BDD

I have a very similar story, not about a bottle, but related. anyway, I was at the flea market, browsing with my wife, and walked up to a table where a guy was standing holding and looking at several complete Beers county atlases from my area, all in good condition.

this is really starting to become a problem...
Tigue, you hit the nail on the head, it's a great hobby and we want to share it with others. But in the end we're digging our own graves.- BDD

this is really starting to become a problem...
Another attempt by the archies to give privy digging a bad name in the public eye. There are at least hundreds of thousands if not millions of privy sites in this country, and you're telling me they want to dig up and study every one of them? Ridiculous! I have no problem whatsoever with a...- BDD
