This site was in a area that made it sorta hard to get to from water(no where to launch the boat close by).2 miles in walking through woods and marsh.Once there it wasn't looking good for finding a place to hunt it.The tide was high and not all of the site has washed from the woods.And there was no way to work the woods at this place one massive vine and brier pit.So I did my best around the shoreline constantly almost going over my knee boots with water made it tough but I was determined after the hellish walk to make the best of it. :D Not much for finds. :( Like the little train button different then others I've found).
Also wanted to add another idea I've been using when you only have like one button you want to boil.I save the wife's tea cup candle holders and use them for small boils.Once done just nip with a pair of needle nose pliers & dump.Save from haveing to use so much pieroxide when you just have a small job.
Take Care,
Pete, :hello:

Thanks Jeff,
But I'll most likely leave this one now after reaching it. :D Not in a place likely to wash out very fast nor do the finds seem all that old.So it's one that I've been wondering about,wanted to knock out before it gets to warm, and now will let be. :wink:
Take Care,
Pete, :hello:

Of all the musket balls I've found this one was neat in how it's mushroomed.In a perfect circle around it.Makes you wonder what it must of hit staight on hard but not so hard it destroyed it or deformed it oddly. :icon_scratch: (tree I guess)
