Hi guys

Viking why do you want to move your workshop (this dose not sound good...) how will you work in such a small space?

and Peter stop trying to get the guys to feel sorry for you or even to agree with you about them gold coins THEY feel the same way as I do.

Silki all I can tell you is that those are big shells Grin

and probably worth some if you look at the price of brass nowadays.

All the Best
Xavier

That one shell is quite modern.... it is a Vodka shell with a narrow neck... Shocked

it was designed to explode and make the people delirious..... by the rubbish that Xavier is talking about my gold coins..... I see the effects are still working Funny

Hi Peter ! You are right - we are calling it " biological/ chemical weapon " - very twisted and dangerous ! It incapacitate yours enemies ( and friends !) by doing strange things to them ! Mad

.
Xavier , those shells are REALLY BIG and heavy , I can just imagine size of the guns shooting them - and poor guys who have to reload them ?! I am attaching photo of my " drinking buddy " from my bar - this is old polish navy diving suit - light , not " classic "

Don't you dare comment about my ....... LOL

Besides it could be grape shot we are close to the Tsitsikamma forest and there was a huge industry going on with stink wood, yellow wood and other hard wood's used for ship building (1700-1800) come to think of it I'd love to go detecting in that forest.

Xavier ! It is bloody difficult to survive with one hand if you are used to use two ! But I am coping so far ! Did you dived with one of this on the photo ? - It is called : Hard hat diving suit - I am just dreaming about putting one in my bar ... The other photo it is apparently Radio from the old bomber - I got it on the auction , but I am not sure about the type and model . Any ideas ?

Very nice collection , Peter ! I also did build some radios in old days and it was great fun , but ,unfortunately they all gone in troubled times of moves and travels ! I still have lots of antics and military items in my old country but bringing it here will be impossible because of legal restrictions ! Cry
