Best Three Years ..Finds/Displays/Displays to Build Updated 12/6/12...

Folks it's going on three years for me now & with time has come change.Since I've moved to our new home I've been trying to get my stuff set up this time with a little description.When time allows I work on it.I'm getting close but still have a few more displays I would like to build those being my....... favorites/finds,indian pottery,& bottles shown at the begining of this post.My latest was a colonial shard display which once I got into it found out I had to cut it short just to much of it for me & would not leave me no room for others. Anyway here's how it's going...enjoy.
Take Care,
Pete,

Wanted to share this documentary about Colonial N.C.. I really enjoyed it & it explains alot about the region here on the coast.Really sums up what I've come to learn about my area in a Movie/ Video.Really brings it to life when you've been & found these sites such as mentioned
Video: Birth of a Colony: North Carolina | Watch UNC-TV Presents Online | UNC-TV Video
Take Care,
Pete,

Has to be one of the best and displayed collections I have ever seen.. Awesome job.. The only thing I saw that I would change is in the first pic, I would move the larger bottles to the back.. I saw a round iron ring with a piece of metal attached to it, I have one just like it.. Always wondered if it's a wagon piece?? Great job you've done..

Thanks each one of you 8) It's what I do,like to do,& will continue to do. I'm hooked no doubt but it's good clean fun & love every chance I get to do it.
Best to you All,
Pete,

It's like a little museum How much is the entrance fee? or is it by donation
Really well done
If you don't mind me saying though; do something to preserve those iron pieces, I've left things and watched them continue to degrade

Fee=1 beer & willing to talk.(cheap rates)
Iron= I know & is why I don't even bring it home anymore,rather leave it buried of course Not much luck with it here most of the time it's in a egg shell state unless really solid thick built.Nothing inside of it if cleaned to even save(no solid iron left to it)
Thanks,

Ha! I hear ya; I do the same thing now. Unless it's something real special, the time involved just doesn't seem worth it.

Not sure what pic. your actually talking about but from how you desribe it,I am guessing you may be speaking of the Horse Snaffle Bit.If not let me know which pic. your speaking about.It would look like this....

Clearly, you love the relics ....
I like the small table with glass and many of the findings, perhaps the best for me would be the sword.
