hi
i found 2 bolts with round heads, they look like boat bolts, any one know how long they have been around. they must be old, they where under a up rooted tree about a foot deep. the tree was at least 200 years old. ill try get a photo if i can find a camera.
very cool site.
:icon_scratch:
 
He said that the black spots are actually streaks running from the root line up through to where the first row of nails were hammered in, on up to where the branches branched off. He said, he cannot use the wood because he cannot get the black out. And it was useless for furniture making. He was gonna send the trucks over 500 miles to pick up the tree and pay me 2500.00 for it.......NGE P.S. I rented a splitter and burned the whole tree in my fireplace over the next 3 years.

BTW, to identify a red oak from a white oak, look at the leaves.....red oak, the leaves are rounded on the tips and white oak, they are pointed. Just remember this, "R" (ROUNDED)( means Red). It is easier to remember that.........NGE

hi mike

i have come to the conclusion that the bolt is from some logger/prospectors from 1860'2, the local cop/indian agent was on his way to check up on the loggers when the local chief killed him, then bragged about it.
the prospector/loggers also dissapeared.
a few months later the british military bomed, with cannons, the nearby tribe in the hopes of arresting the chief, but without the body of the agent , the chief got off scott free.
the bolt is , i feel is a "concaved neck bolt" from the 1860's.
as i am to hard on cameras, i have no picture of the bolts.

:icon_thumright: in my country, treasure is protected from all but the criminals. hmmmmmm

This is getting almost as much attention as the one a couple weeks ago of the rock someone found. I'm going to start a new one with a picture of the lint I found in my pocket... ::)

Now, navel lint is truly fascinating to many, it seems. In fact, a Dr. Karl Kruszelniki from Australia even went as far as to delve into the in and outs (pun intended) of belly button fluff. He was awarded an Ig Nobel Prize in 2002 for ‘achievements that cannot or should not be repeated’.

;D

O'yea something for size! :laughing7: ;D :laughing9:
For starters it tends to be only men who gather navel lint - aka belly button fluff - due to the fact that most women do not have hairy tummies.

According to research (please say this was not government-funded) in Australia, body hair is responsible for lint, threads and bodily detritus finding its way to your prime ventral vacuum collector.

Every day clothing sheds lint, skin flakes off and hair molts. Some of it inevitably ends up in your pito (puku button).

The colour of tummy fluff is generally blue. Mine has ranged in shades from a near indigo blue to more of a sky blue. Having not logged these results other than with a raised eyebrow and a curious "Hmmmm" in the bathroom while brushing my teeth and showing it to the Southern Belle, I cannot fully explain the spectrum of blue.

The popular theory behind this is that blue is the average colour of all our clothes. Some men claim they produce red or green lint. The theory would lead you to believe architects' tummy lint would be black (mostly cashmere), monks' would be orange, and New Zealand cricketers in the 70s would have had a beige-coloured lint.

Swimmers and Fabio don't get lint because their bellies are bald. Robin Williams, Sean Connery and myself can basically use ours for stuffing pillows, filling one a week.

My theory is a little more deep. As you might expect.

I think the nature and colour of a man's tummy lint is representative of his mind and soul.

The uniformly common colour blue is representative of the male's perspective of the burden of the world weighing on him. Those men with abnormally-coloured lint are either deranged, hopelessly aloof or men of such import they are above the weight of expectation that society places on him.

The texture and size of the lint ball is directly representative of the makeup of a day's endeavours.

The man with a massive lint ball has been exerted, stretched and plied with activity. The closer knit it is, the stronger the impact of his effort. Lightweight loose tummy fluff is common in government departments and city councils.

The man with no lint left after a day out is normally a nudist or a stripper. You can freely cast aspersions on men with little lint-producing ability.

Belly button piercings serve to deflect lint accumulation, according to international research. This means the pierced man is likely to be judged wrongly, but that shouldn't matter as he got his belly button pierced in the first place.

Good men make good lint. Strong lint, strong character
