Also I want to share how to make another bottle cleaning tool but would like to attach photos.

As I don't have a ton of time to sit here, just know I thank you in advance for...
My two boys and I recently found a virgin dump and pulled 400+ bottles out ranging from before 1850 to 1900. Many of the classics and many new medicines, pharmacy and flasks that we had never heard of.
