Hi Steve,
Yet again another lovely set of finds and very informative on all three days searches, superb pictures as well, I can tell you've spent a lot of time putting it together, Thanks for sharing.
Ps... Ive found that you can never completely clear a site, but the number of finds to be had you'll notice will reduce. I'm certain if you return again you'll still be finding more. All I can put it down to is perhaps changes in the moisture content of the soil making detector signals weaker or stronger on specific visit days and perhaps also worm action moving the soil and finds around very slightly. Increasing and decreasing detector signals by moving finds nearer and further from the surface or just changing their orientation from perhaps lying edge (thin) side up weak signal to moving it to its large side facing up stronger signal.
Keep the good work up, as always looking forward to your next posts and good luck with any new sites.
LUCKYSTRIKE

i've seen cigarette lighters made out of 50 cal rounds.
also blow gun has siphon pickup on it. my father had a device similar to this that he used for washing down engines and other greasy things. The nipple near the nozzle is for attaching a hose. The hose would be dipped into a tank of mineral spirits. when air is blown through gun, a fine atomized mist of solvent is mixed in and out the the nozzle.

Schrader still make high pressure valves and fittings.
They also make them for oxygen supply sets.
I have got to arrange to go on a dig with you Steve, are you sure you're not "Magneto" from X-Men incognito! LOL
Regards etc
Ian
