Looks like you put it on a plaster of paris mold? I remember the scouts where I went really liked that stuff. My best yr with them I made a car from a chunk of pine wood and put a lead piece in the nose and won a race with it. We use to go bottle hunting every weekend. Good times as a kid. Thanks for the memories

That's awesome you still have those artifacts.
I bet the cub scouts wouldn't let you pick up artifacts from DD nowadays. That's called pothunting, LOL. DD is a wonderful site, one of the best in the world. I like walking around that site every now and then...

From winter to summer pictures. I like the view of the Missouri river from DD.
