NCtoad Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Congrats on the buffs and ihp’s! In your first photo near the top is something that looks like a screwdriver handle. Is that an old valve stem cover from an old model T? I found one exactly like that one time and wasn’t exactly sure if it was a valve stem cover or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found one exactly like that one time and wasn’t exactly sure if it was a valve stem cover or not. I've found a bunch of them. Could be, my avatar came from a Model T hubcap I dug there, and there is a Model T quietly rusting into the ground near there. I've also dug Ford ignition keys here. I just thought it was a screwdriver handle or something ? Just looked them up, NCToad for the win! That's exactly what they are. ? Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking forward to spring and my first beach trip of the year. I haven't been finding much lately but I'm still getting outside with the Equinox. It was 55 yesterday, and 65 today. Tomorrow and Saturday are going to be warm too, I have a hunt on Saturday with some other people ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schoolofhardNox Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Indians and Buffalo make it a nice hunt. 1894 is a semi key date I think. Is that a lead round ball near the bottom center of the picture?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that a lead round ball near the bottom center of the picture?? Yes, all these places are loaded with buck balls of every imaginable size and type. Also musket and pistol balls. I could build a pretty big lead balloon with them all... ? They only minted 16 million 1894s, it is more rare. The 1882 was 33 million, I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen one of those and had no idea there was such a thing. Maybe the equine version of mag wheels? I don’t know much about horses (other than I rarely win when I go to the track) but in the program they indicate how much weight the horse is carrying, down to the pound. A few ounces per hoof could mean better acceleration? I just got back from the track a few hours ago. Down $7.80. Not bad for 4 hours of hanging out with friends. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Paul, They are way lighter than iron, supposedly cushion shock better and reduce fatigue. I was just as uninformed as anyone ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
