AARC,

It was just to tempting...lol.

...

Aaaah! Savage family diggers!!

This guy is crazy but I love the episode where they find "black Beard´s" treasure. Think it was called "Pirate's Booty Calls "
The Blunder bass and the gem stones in the silver snuff box are fantastic.

What´s a big mess on that and other series series is, when they pull out of the ground finished restored pieces... Hate this staged stuff.

Guy´s, who knows some nice shipwreck documentations like "search for the Atocha", "Treasure of the Maravillas" etc. ?

There was some years ago god ones from the Whydah and Blackbeard´s ship but they are gone now.

Looking for ANY similar stuff! Also docu´s about shipwreck restorations are welcome!

Tom,

I'm heading off shortly for my morning walk but when I get back I'll see if I can find a few gems for you.

Tom,

I agree with you about the staged stuff....most serious detectorists dig loads of junk and get lucky once in awhile.

So shows like that draws a lot of gullible people to the hobby thinking they're going to get rich....lol.

Man I'd give an arm & leg for a Cannon.Problem is,that's what they cost.

I asked for the extra A ...

Do you need an extra "A" ?
Most suffice with one!

 

[bill from lachine]

Tom,
Some people bake iron in the oven to get the last bits of rust off, with this cannon ball since there's cracks in it probably not a very good idea though. Unless you want to put it back together with crazy glue......

Tom,
Working with acetone will do it alright try not to fry all your remaining brain cells at once...ok. Here's another tune to go along with your mood.
