    Trying to determine age and other info of barn finds

    Hey wait, did you say you are from Ontario? As in Canada? One thing you will find out about USA forums is that you need to stop being a pain in the ass and start your own bottle website. I am a (sometime's) proud citizen of the USA and I really don't give a hoot about a bottle you found...

    Sad Story

    This is a terrible story. How did little kids end up with a herd, wait - a flock - a sh!t -load wait a bunch, of killer snakes. Could it possibly be because their parents had them in the house to entertain their friends and look like they were (cool) Surely not.

    stress caused by work

    Don't be silly. You didn't read the whole post. From the industrys point of view, some accidents can not be prevented. They are called freak accidents and on big jobs they happen. Sometimes little ones too. Reminds me of a friend. He got a good job in a small business as soon as he got out...

    I am sorry I did not present myself more clearly, Cowseatmaize. I just posted this for fun. Because everyone is so intent on cleaning bottles that they might attempt it at the wrong moment. Maybe it's time for a little R & R - what do you sat cow seat maize? Let's go to the beach, sit on a...

    Anytime is not always the optimum time to clean bottles. I listed 3 examples below. DO NOT ATTEMJPT TO CLEAN A BOTTLE IF; 1. if you are the type of guy, God love you, that assemble's barbie mansions at Christmas and reads the directions afterwards. 2. if you are in the midst of...

    Two word game

    Maybe, Rick, I don't want to be impolite, but you need to drop this game and play bingo at church

    stress caused by work

    I just have one more thing to say. All of the accident's I have seen in the last 15 year's were what you would call freak accidents. The worker was following the rules, the contractor was following rules, but someone ended up on a slab anyway. The accident's I observed the previous 10 year's...

    stress caused by work

    Osia Boyce: Risk is relative. If 2 ironworker's fall off the steel on a 3 year job, that's just the way it is. If you wrap them up in a bunch of rope's and sling's, 4 ironworker's are going to die because their safety equipment prevented them from getting out of the way of an I-Beam in time...

    Good for you! You are going to retire and not have to put up with punk-ass loser's anymore. Dana used to run with the wrong crowd and hitch her horse to the wrong wagon. I can't tell you, how many time's I had to appear in court on her behalf. I said to her, "Look here, Dana, the guy's...

    It works for me !!! cleaning bottles !!

    Attic Find's, no one has ruined any of my bottle's by cleaning it but me, when I first started out. The one and only thing i am trying to get across, and not to you, because I believe you are a professional, is that old bottles have a surface texture and too many wannabee's remove it with...

    It works for me !!! cleaning bottles !!

    Attic finds, I don't really care about the before picture's, I was just wondering if you could post pictures of bottle's you've done. I like pictures a lot. I have never tumbled a bottle. I polish them. I use a lot of ideas and stuff borrowed from the auto body repair field.

    It works for me !!! cleaning bottles !!

    Attic Finds, I did not mean to give the impression that tumbling is bad. I have seen some really good tumbled bottles. I'll bet you are very good at it. You said you had been doing it 10 year's. Would it be possible for you to post some pictures of your work? The more I read your...

    One more thing. If you take the time to look at the post's on this page, you are going to learn fast what over tumbling mean's. Particularly sad, the Warner's with the irridescant colors. Now it's just one more piece of garbage. Tumbling guy's, you have your opinion and I realize your...
