just one more--any one else find great numbers of clay pipe bits while digging? These are all montreal companies-Bannerman, Henderson etc from around mid 1800s

now that's a cool idea. I've been collecting the bits of flow-blue and transferware pottery that always turn up in my dig. Someday I'll grout them together and make a frame. or something.
Neat. Sounds like it is a subject thas crossed a few minds ....Speaking of incomplete bottles--is it ever worth it to keep broken bottles? I glued a few back together, but i'm running out of room in the window sills to display them. ---Also, i found a "wyeth & Bro Philada" the other day...
Hey all. So here's a stupid question---what exactly, is a bottle tumbler? My son has a rock tumbler, but i'm thinking it would be BAD for bottles........!
Well, great. Now i'm too creeped out to dig my own dump.
Actually, now that i think if it--my neighbour says that the ghost of Charlotte, a woman whose headstone we found in our dump area,...is turning her TV on and off. Go figure.
Yeah, unfortunately i bought mine second hand and minus instructions. The On/Off concept I figured out myself, though. Its not at all a powerful model, but it does a dandy job of finding hidden nails in boards i am about to run through the planer.
Hey all. I carve wood signs, and restore (with hubby and son) hopelessly derelict old houses to their former glory. Share my space with 3 ungrateful cats, two hideous screeching budgies and a border collie (wanna play? Wanna play? How bout now? How bout now? How bout now?.....) Got interested...
HEY
The silver is , as i understand, a spanish colonial 1 Rheal coin from 1815. The bronze is a pre confederation trade token from Canada which has been nailed through. Pretty cool finds ---almost justifies the poison ivy.....
here's the other side of the coins...
