Iron.....no really, an iron.

Dug this iron last time out and had to zap it into shape before showing it on the red carpet...at least I think she's pretty. I haven't been finding much iron lately, to some that may be a good thing but I like the challenge of restoration. I think this one is ready to try out...honey, can you iron my shirt?....I didnt think so

I keep and conserve what square nails are savable. I try keeping artifacts from one house site together...and a few nails make for part of the homes story. Now if I could only dig some rose heads....that would be nice but where I am, I would be really reachin.

Jupp. I also save up all finds pre-1850's for one homesite seperate.
At the end of the year I plan to donate it to the local historical society for future reference... If they accept the stuff.

That is very nice! Most of my iron is fence. I, too, am salvaging nails to reuse to hang up what relics I may find. Hope I find something that cool. Congratulations!

Lordy, that certainly adds a new wrinkle to the excuse for NOT diggin' iron hits----

I prefer horse shoes---
I donate 'em to Hillary----

Nice ol' iron you got yourself.
I've dug lots of sad irons but none with handles sadly enough.

Only big iron i've found is manhole covers.
