    Sweet and sour dive

    Lol, I might have come across that way but assure you I'm still happy. I was simply disappointed with not being able to completely cross something off my bucket list. I'm very thankful that the good lord has blessed me.

    Sloan's liniment dating help

    It looks like the seam goes to the top of the lip. That means it's a ABM bottle(automatic bottle machine). Since it also looks to be a cork stopper bottle as well, I would place it with in ten years after 1915

    My staycation free dive finds

    Don't get me wrong, I rarely come by whole intact stoneware. In the NE with the winters and the fact back then they probably were discarding them because they were broken anyhow makes them hard to come by. I found these stoneware in separate locations.

    Steel Wool for River Bottles

    I dive alot my self and know what you mean when you say black river scum on the bottle. I personally wouldn't use still wool just because it might be abrasive with softer glass bottles. Try using wood acid. You can buy this at your local hardware store. It will eat though any scum or biological...
